A better idea would be to take down the addresses and sign them up for every distasteful, disgusting, loathesome thing you can find. Like the NAMBLA mailing list. Using your browser in private mode and preferably a different machine on a different network. Like, say, a laptop on a Starbuck’s free wifi.

Put an ISIS flag next to it. They’ll get all kinds of law enforcement attention and feel safer.

Do not assume that doing things from a Starbuck's (or library's) free wifi cannot be used to uniquely identify your device, if law enforcement becomes interested.

Your laptop/tablet/etc has a network card. That card has a unique manufacturer-set address (called the MAC (media access control) address. A sufficient number of people use Starbucks wifi in an effort to attempt to be anonymous, and they thus get a sufficient number of law enforcement requests, that they almost certainly keep the router logs.

Doing things from Starbucks free Wi-Fi is no guarantee of anonymity. Their router will log your device’s unique MAC address, and will deliver it to law enforcement on request.
