"illegal activities" doesn't always mean buying crack cocaine, or whatever. depending on where you live it can mean:
accessing wikipedia, forming communities, performing union activities...
in other words, the ruling class of your country decides something being threatening their power, and that becomes an illegal activity.
of course everyone can be tracked. also everyone is not julian assange, so i'm not so worried about using tor for "illegal activities".
