+Running ooniprobe is a potentially risky activity. This greatly depends on the
+jurisdiction in which you are in and which test you are running. It is
+technically possible for a person observing your internet connection to be

 from forensics analysis.  If the fact that you have installed or used ooni
 probe is a liability for you, please be aware of this risk.
