for the privacy guide:

i was thinking more like:

  1. bob uses open source software, and a VPN to access a website
  2. bob creates an account using the VPN and tries to fake the information he puts there (name, address, etc)
  3. The website owner somehow figures out that it's bullshit information (and it's against their ToS) and decides that he wants to deanonymize bob.

point is, deanonymization attacks are cheap if you only use VPNs, all it takes is for LE to knock on their door, and they are forced to give out every info they have of their users, which reveals Bob's home IP address

therefore conclude that bob's setup is not suited for anonymous use.

dont forget to make a graph to explain that situation
