OK, but you won't be competing against people. The information will be processed by machines. My cheap laptop cpu can crunch over 10,000 paperbacks-worth of data every second. Imagine what the NSA or GCHQ can do.
They could easily prioritize dark web users of people with VPNs but using AI they could classify everyone's usage and use that to see who was a threat and who was not. The results could also contribute to your social credit score, for instance.
I am still not sure that you know what you are up against. If you can type 50 words a minute then assuming 7-letter words you can write about half a million characters in a 24-hour day day.
A processor with 4 cores and a clock speed of 2 GHz can cope with nearly 700,000,000,000,000 characters a day or over a billion people like you.
If you're not as fast as a professional typist or you need to sleep then you can start multiplying that billion by numbers greater than one.
OK, I know there is more to the problem than CPU speed but it does provide a starting point. If presented in a way a computer could understand one could read every work written since the beginning of time in less time then it took you to read this sentence!
A really fast computer has a speed measured in "Peta FLOPS" which, simplifying and without going into detail, is over a million times faster.
