This is all off-topic for the list. However:

I don't know specifically about you,  but in many jurisdictions it is an offense to fail to provide passwords or other access to data in your possession.

As a general thing, encrypted drives such as those uses on Apple devices have a higher complete data loss rate than non encrypted drives.

At least half of Tor exit Nodes are run by State authorities. Anyone accessing a Tor exit node will automatically be put on a watch list by local authorities.

In my my view, if you have specific data you want to protect, such as passwords or bank details, then using an encrypted file e.g. a zip file is a good solution.
