[1] You can also to self-host your own SimpleX servers on Flux decentralized cloud.

[2] The probability of connection being de-anonymized and the number of random server choices follow this equation: (1 - s ^ 2) ^ n = 1 - p, where s is the share of attacker-controlled servers in the network, n is the number of random choices of entry and exit nodes for the circuit, and p is the probability of both entry and exit nodes, and the connection privacy being compromised. Substituting 0.02 (2%) for s, 0.5 (50%) for p, and solving this equation for n we obtain that 1733 random circuits have 50% probability of privacy being compromised.

Also see this presentation about Tor, specifically the approximate calculations on page 76, and also Tor project post about the changes that made attack on hidden service anonymity harder, but still viable in case the it is used for a long time.
