I found this to be an interesting watch in layering security/ privacy rather than throwing the hail mary at a VPN and expecting it to keep you anonymous.

I assume they know who you are and what you are doing if it is online. VPN is a good security measure, but one screw up and they’ve got you. At least for your current connection.

Most people are still going to be logged into sites. Your cookies will give you away if you have any common tracking ones. Browser fingerprinting and other techniques can also be used to figure out who you are, even in incognito.

Then there is chat control, which is how they really want to get you, but that’s another topic.
