How anonymus are you guys when paying for indexers?

How anonymus are you guys when paying for indexers?

I heared from a friend that they buy them like super anonymus with safe crypto, throwaway email, an anonymously bought vpn and in a temporary vm. after that they only send the traffic of their servarr stack through the vpn. Something along that line.

Is this nessecary or is it over the top? I'm not into crypto at all and I'm wondering which measures to take.

Any advice is appreciated!
