Once you need a normal server you might as well just have the server you already need serve the info preferably simply by grabbing a diff from previously so you reveal no info and without downloading a substantial portion of a chain. I swear people want to shove a blockchain into shit when it almost never adds any value whatsoever. You didn't address the fact about making an indelible link between you and your report and indeed prior reports if you are ever nabbed.
You wanna go to jail hosting that server? You want to be extradited from another partnering country to the USA for inciting violence? For accessory to murder if something went wrong?
How is the link indelible when it's anonymous? This isn't money that can be traced back to you once it goes through Tornado Cash, or if it was done on something like Monero.

This dudes life might be fucked now.
But sure, no reason, just trying to shove blockchain into everything.
A block chain is a distributed permanent ledger of transactions where any intermediary who claims to provide anonymity is in danger of being compromised and turning instantly into a Honey pot
Tornado Cash is a smart contract. It's not anything that can be compromised. It's code. It's cryptography. Its immutable and can never be altered.
It's unstoppable short of making using it against the law, and the US government tried that, and lost their court case.
Edit: Just further clarity - Once you deposit money into it, you get cryptographically signed response that says you have the right to withdraw that much money, but the response has no link to you. The money you get back is mixed with millions of other peoples money, and you withdraw someone elses money.
