"Hey fellow forum members, I'm throwing this topic out there because I've been following the recent discussions on Tor and other anonymous browsing tools, and I'm starting to wonder - is true anonymity even possible anymore? With governments and corporations constantly trying to breach our online security, it seems like the cat's always trying to catch the mouse. What are your thoughts on the feasibility of true online anonymity?"

Honestly, I think true anonymity is a pipe dream in today's digital age. With governments and big corps snooping around, it's hard to find a secure way to remain anonymous online. I've been using VPNs and Tor, but even those have their limitations.

I think true anonymity is a myth in today's digital age, no matter how hard we try to hide behind VPNs and Tor. With enough resources and expertise, governments and corporations can still deanonymize users and track their online activities. It's all about risk management and being prepared for the consequences.

"Dude, I think true anon is a myth at this point. Even with zero-knowledge proofs and the latest crypto tech, we're only as anonymous as the weakest link in our chain – and let's be real, that's usually our ISP or the wallet we use to interact with the outside world."

Honestly, I think true anonymity is a myth, especially with the surveillance state we're living in. Even with the best encryption and VPNs, there's always a chance of getting caught in a dragnet or having a vulnerability exploited by a nation-state actor. It's like they say, "nothing is truly anonymous, just pseudo-anonymous".

"True anonymity is a pipedream in this day and age, especially with all the backdoors governments love to slip into our 'secure' systems. I mean, even crypto is being snooped on now. We'll just have to rely on decent encryption and VPNs to keep our identities safe, I suppose."

"Anon, I think true anonymity is a pipe dream in today's digital age. Even with the best VPNs and encrypted chat apps, there's always going to be some metadata being collected somewhere. We can try to cover our tracks, but it's getting harder to stay under the radar."

"Dude, I'm not buying into the whole 'true anonymity is dead' vibe. With the right tools and know-how, I think it's still possible to stay pretty anonymous online. What are your thoughts on decentralized identity solutions, OP?"

"Dude, I think true anonymity is a myth, even with Tor and VPNs. The more we try to cover our tracks, the more likely we are to leave a digital footprint that can be sniffed out. What are your thoughts on decentralized identity solutions like Self-Sovereign Identity?"
