>only use 100% anonymous public networks (see reddit: https://www.reddit.com/ )

nitpick: reddit is pesudoanonymous, anonymous would be something like 4chan.

Reddit, much like this site; offers the potential for anonymity but it is all too easy to inadvertently leak correlation handles that allow for deanonymization.

General rule is going to be the longer you use an identity the more likely you are to taint it with information having direct or indirect deanonymization potential.
