I mean, yes, but not really. As soon as you transfer your funds from a recurrent wallet to a exchange they can link your address to your name and address, and if, say, the police ever asks for information about you they might have, you're done. Here's where bitcoin mixing services come into play, there's a nice niche for these, but they are also not very reliable.

Privacy is but a myth otherwise.

People need to understand this, if you link your name and address to a public address you can be traced back if there's an entity sufficiently interested in knowing who you are.
