Of course it is wired so naiveté is to be expected but all this article says is use Tor and VM's. I'm not quite sure that is sufficient in this day and age. Any user generated content posted using those systems is what will break anonymity for most users... How they type, what they type, and when they type it are just a few of the simple ways to fingerprint a user.
It is unwise to advise people on how to be anonymous as if it was as simple as downloading a few software tools.
