There is NO anonymity on the Internet. That is the biggest self-delusion that so many people kid themselves with today.

Yeah, I shouldn't have used the word "complete". That is a fallacy.

You can make it difficult for casual observers to figure out who you are, that's my goal. If I were paranoid about anonymity, I'd be running a Tails stick in a cheap refurb "burner" laptop sans hard drive with my favorite VPN set for two extra hops on a public wi-fi.

That's about as close to anonymous as humanly possible for most people.
