Anonymity isn't binary. Perfect anonymity is, and always will be, completely impossible. Practically speaking, we can only talk about reducing risk in different scenarios.
I like I2P as it has a reduced threat footprint compared to Tor as it's all internal, but it's also a smaller network, probably more vulnerable to Sybil, less audited code, etc.
Again, my point is that there is no perfect solution, it all depends on the situation and the requirements.
Just out of curiosity and for purely educational purposes (I admittedly know very little about the topic), how about something like I2P or FreeNet? Are these at all viable alternatives?
What other choices do we have for "anonymity" outside of the usual VPN/Proxy?
