Private, maybe. Anonymous? Never.
There are levels of anonymity. You can get private enough that only certain government agencies with well funded budgets and motivated agents can find you. That's waaaay beyond what 99% of people need.

Anyone determined enough, with the right connections, can find out pretty much anything.
