Very wrong. The more you do it, the easier to trace. Not doing it at home means very little in the long term.
As with anything, it depends on how many resources it takes to find you versus the amount you do it.
But the other point is: not only is it illegal, but it’s considered quite rude not to give a callsign. Ham radio is one hobby that hasn’t been ruined yet by the kind of devil-may-care attitude seen online.
Yeah sorry I meant like from different places in a city, not just not at home.
It’s for sure rude and not something I’d try/recommend but we’re talking about espionage here.
Am I wrong in thinking that if I wanted to propagate revolutionary thought and went to a different neighbourhood with an HT and transmitted to the local repeater, it would be hard for the state to find me if my transmission was less than 5 minutes?

It just takes 3 or more synchronized receive stations to pinpoint your location. The state has an unlimited budget compared to you.
3 synchronized receive stations to fix my location, and then what would they do?
