True. But I don't mind my ISP keeping track of what I do online. When I will mind that, I will use Tor browser to stay anonymous.

So if you don't trust the VPN company with logs of what you are doing online, why do you trust your ISP with logs of what you are doing online, especially considering the ISP know your real name and address whereas a good VPN company would not?

I'm saying that I wouldn't trust VPN companies that say they don't keep logs of what their users are doing online if I wanted to stay anonymous. I would rather use Tor network which is free.

It takes one tiny mistake to disclose your identity. You can make 999 correct steps to avoid being identified and then you make one mistake (like entering your phone number or any other personal data) and your anonymity is gone...

That's not an argument for giving up on anonymity before you've even begun. Quite the opposite, in fact - it's an argument for taking extra care at all times. It only takes one tiny mistake to crash your car and cause multiple fatalities. That doesn't mean we should all drive with our eyes closed.

You are comparing totally different things. When I'm surfing anonymous and I make a mistake, it doesn't hurt me or anyone else. It reveals my identity, but it doesn't hurt me or anyone else. And when I'm driving my car without being careful, I'm danger to myself and others on the road.
