IP Tracking is not enough to get an individual. They can get a household or business that way. They can track you by your specific browser signature: combo of user agent, plugins, etc. Which is why I like to use a browser dedicated to social media. I also have a computer provided by my employer as well as my own personal device. This helps a lot.
