There is an insurmountable technical problem with high-traffic anonymity: the volume of traffic makes you stand out. The only good solution is to use something like Freenet, a peer-to-peer system where no single node is responsible for large amounts of data. The existence of Web-Freenet gateways helps a lot for dealing with people who are not running the Freenet software:

You can also not keep logs at all, so there is nothing to subpoena.

No, but law enforcement can force you to log information with warrants, national security letters (US-only), etc. So they won't have records in the past, but once they are focused on looking for something, they can get information going forward.

Unless publishing the documents is what you need to be wary of. That was the whole idea behind Tor hidden services: to give people living in repressive countries the ability to run blogs etc. anonymously.

You don't have to log traffic, your bandwidth provider can do that without your permission.
