Anonymity
Anonymity means actions cannot be linked to a persistent identity. Tor reduces network-level linkage; behavior, metadata, and logins can still deanonymize users.
Anonymity is contextual: hidden from your ISP differs from hidden from a website you log into. Tor addresses the network observer; OPSEC addresses everything you reveal voluntarily.
