You are correct. Additionally, you could split large transactions into multiple destination addresses or obfuscate them with intermediary addresses. It takes longer to verify transactions, but it's harder to tie addresses to a single entity (you). Another problem you hint at is broadcasting a transaction from certain IPs. A common heuristic is to record the IP of the first node to report a transaction as the node that made the transaction. You would have to modify your client so that is not the case, or use some sort of VPN to connect to the network.
