I think what you're looking at is something more like, if someone employs this tactic, they can't identify that addresses X, Y, and Z belong to the same person, whether or not they know who that person is.

Linking together abstract pieces like that can be one of the first steps to figuring out a very anonymous network.

I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or disagreeing...

And yes, those links are basically all you can use in an anonymous network to deanonymize actions. So how is linking things better than not?

Now I think I'm just confused by the way you're describing things. I'll hope someone else is better able to understand.

Hah, sorry if I am :) Not sure how I can significantly improve things without writing a blog post or something :|

Anyway. Thanks for chiming in :)
