Or it could theoretically go offline if I used it for illegal outbound network activity and somebody from the local FBI field office showed up with a warrant to take it (again highly unlikely, because I don't do that shit).

It is a mistake to think that consequences that come with other businesses or the government believing you are doing something illegal can only occur if you actually do something illegal. (It's also a mistake to think that the government could o my seize your computer if it thought you did something illegal with it; though if they didn't but thought it had relevant evidence they might ask nicely before getting a warrant, rather than jumping straight to compulsory process. But that's politeness, not a legal mandate.)
