Probably little. Big disruptions happen when law enforcement can undermine the technological foundation of these sorts of enterprises. If, as it seems, takedowns are done through good old fashioned investigative work then it doesn't matter. The next market will just spring up to fill the void.

Tor is completely and utterly compromised. Yes, I'm sure they'll come up with some bullshit about how an admin used some email somewhere on some site and didn't log in through the VPN or some other bullshit like that...
Don't believe it for a second. They found these sites by exploiting Tor somehow and are using something called PARALLEL CONSTRUCTION (search for it) to cover their tracks and hide the real method from courts.
Only idiots use Tor.

I play games and don't really care about privacy since I don't do much besides gaming.
Windows seems like the right choice for me.
I respect going Linux if you're super worried about the FBI finding your lolicon collection though.

What services are you running?
Did you fall for the smb/samba meme? NFS is truly better
What are you running on pfsense/your router?

Which case should I buy for a NAS build?
Define r5 (perfect except only 8 HDDs)
or
NZXT H440 (shitty airflow, temp and sound-dampening but can fit 11 HDDs)?

Wizards assemble !
Advanced users of GNU/Linux (and I mean advanced), remember to try Source Mage GNU/Linux. True source-based distribution, and (in contrast with Gentoo and Arch) is:
Free from obfuscated and pre-configured code.
Fully committed to GPL, uses only free software (as in freedom) in their main package.
With even the documentation licensed as FDL.
Without 3rd party patches, sensible defaults or masked packages.
Doesn't need obfuscated python libraries, only bash.
Uses clean dependencies as they came from upstream developers, which by the same provides instant updates.
Can heal broken installs.
Can also use flags.
Do you like Arch Linux's AUR? Do you like Gentoo's portage (or ports-like) package manager? With SMGL's "sorcery" you get all that. Making new spells (packages) not found in the grimoire (repository) is easy http://sourcemage.org/Spell/Book
Bash hackers welcome! Come and join http://sourcemage.org/

It also enables you to be free from having a life or job too right?
Any source based distro doesn't have the most important freedom, and that is the freedom of respecting your time.
>sensible
hipster retard red flag word right there.
>welcome!
Nobody is "welcome", you want newcomers to fail because you think this means you're "smart". By using shitty distros on purpose, you are a neo-luddite and go right into the overcomplicated door lock picture and you are only harming the linux community. Please fuck off to BSD.
These problems have already been fixed in every other distro 15 years ago.

I see myself writing python code like in C++ without brackets and semicolons.
I'm sure that for about everything I do, there's a nicer way. How do I learn this nicer way?

Build a computer, learn linux play around with it, learn and write a programming language like C.
In general, read and get hands on. Read and practice. I hope your autism is good enough not to either get bored or frustrated.
