This wasn't the original goal, but it's a "feature" that some groups of users have come to require.
Creating a new random address every 24 hours (or more often if needed, I assume) goes a long way towards that, too. There's still proxies with IPv6, those also make everything nice and obscure, also hide your TCP seqnums and IP IDs etc.
