You need to have better OPSEC and you need to get over your hesitation to make and submit Fake IDs to services asking "let's get you ID verified". Online Anonymity was never really a right, you have to work for it, and you have to be paranoid to keep it. This means you need to break laws to keep it. How badly do you want it? If you draw the answer at petty laws then apparently not badly enough.
