If you're using an anonet, a new address for every transaction, a
good mix that at least guarantees lack of per session taint, and
are willing to accept a random variance in your input and output BTC
amount and timing to prevent lining up the net totals, I don't think
anyone could. Part of it probably hinges on the overall coin flux
rate through commerce at scale too. I'm sure the answer is on
bitcointalk somewhere.

Good systems are usually stronger than human factors.
1BTC says SR screws up the real life parts first.
