Yes. They can trace it from the IP address, which is randomized numbers specially assigned to a computer. No two computers have the same IP address. The government agencies can get the ip address, contact your internet service provider and they will provide the agencies with the identity of the person with that specific IP address.

Yes! This I also learned from reading the book
"Interview With the Devil" We can be traced as long as a device that is connected to a phone line or routed through the satellite in the sky by any government agency with the technology to do so! If you send an e-mail from the library that e-mail will be traced back to the computer that sent the e-mail and in most cases the computer has to be signed in and out by the librarian.

Absolutely. There are many things in an email that show a path going back to where it originated. With subpeonas, law enforcement at any level can access the information. Sometimes, depending on the server, photos can be obtained as well.
Don't do anything illegal online or you'll be sorrrrrrryyyyyy!

yes your isp is easy to trace but in terms of location I'm not so sure anyone can find out your physical location. I suppose the police or government could. I wouldn't worry too much

Heck yeah. They can do whatever they want to do. These computers have memories. Anything can be traced. Have you seen that movie with Will Smith (I think Enemy of the State). We are not far from that now!

The FBI knows everything. They know everything ABOUT everything. You can't hide.

Yeah and now they're probably checking all of your transmissions since you asked this question

Absolutely. All it takes is a subpoena to the server and they have to give it up.

Sure can. Even the local computer nerd can do that.
