This is an effectively infinitely complex subject.
it depends what you want to do.
Many things are achievable.
Cost/benefit/time spent/conveniance etc.
The good news is, for most people, the ones that aren't planting bombs or trading in kiddy porn, well, there are real world solutions for your privacy/anonymity if you are prepared to put a little effort in.
I have a particular security need, as I have spoken about several times here. I live in a country with an oppressive regime with all communications being monitored and stored and shared, both commercially and state wide. The UK.
So far, I can hold back the tide. They will make VPN illegal for private use in a few years time. These are the good days.
Yeah, I know the NSA have it all anyway with cable taps and whatnot, but still, Doris at no. 56 has never liked me. It wouldn't be good optics if she could print out a data-sheet for the neighbours, where she shows my deep passionate love for barely-legal (but still legal) Japanese teens tied up, taken in every hole, by encephalopods.
Just made the last bit up. But sounds good to me!
Probably time for bed.
