crucial bit is to blend into the crowd instead of standing out (the paradox is the harder we try to mitigate on a technical level the more we'll stick out). instead use hardware compartmentalization, pseudonymous identities (not anonymous ones) and focus on operational techniques (modify your behavior). technology can be a means but often it is just part of a strategy. (e.g. instead of "let's encrypt all the comms" why not eliminating some comms altogether - no need to worry about data that doesn't get stored in the first place etc)
