I have used this same analogy several times here and elsewhere, so for the benefit of new viewers, I will again repeat it.

If you’re going to the bank to cash a check, there’s nothing wrong with driving your own car. If you’re going to the bank to rob it, on the other hand, driving your own car is going to make it ridiculously easy for the police to find you.

However, even if you steal a car before robbing the bank, the odds of you actually getting away with the crime aren’t exactly favorable. There are just too many ways to get caught and eliminating the most obvious, be it your car -or IP addresses - is of minimal help to you.

The solution?

Don’t rob the bank, and the convenience of using your own car will never become an issue.
