There is nothing the Tor developers can do to trace Tor users. The same protections that keep bad people from breaking Tor's anonymity also prevent us from figuring out what's going on.
Can Tor traffic be detected?
Traffic from the Tor network can be detected by configuring a firewall or gateway to audit and log connections from Tor exit nodes. This can be achieved by using an up-to-date list of Tor exit nodes in a block list that has been configured in audit mode instead of enforcement mode.
How do police track Tor users?
If you are using TOR to browse the web, your traffic is encrypted and routed through a series of servers, making it difficult to trace. However, if you are using TOR to access illegal content or engage in illegal activity, law enforcement may be able to track your activity.
