Unless you rotate IPs and browser fingerprints for each identity and alter your visited sites, usage patterns, typing speed and style, mouse movements etc. etc. the data brokers will be able to connect your ”inconsistent” identities.

Most attacks on people are done by those who just google your name and see what comes up so some very minor privacy work helps a lot. Its a lot of work to be completely safe but its very little work to be basically safe.
This was not about targeted attacks/doxxing, but systemic data gathering and enrichment.
The comment you responded talked about attacks/doxxing:
> I don't want to feel like someone can just dig up something I've said or shared 5 years ago and use that against me
"I have no idea who you are talking about leave me alone you freak."
if data is linked to me via some vague data that is based on similarities there's no world where that can be used as a trustworthy source or at least not putting doubt into the person who is using such data as often times it also links to a bunch of incorrectly assigned data. It's like trusting LLM's with everything they say.
Multimodal approaches are commonly cited as 89 to 97% accurate under experimental conditions. Certainly Google can be assumed to have much more data over a gazillion metrics, potentially making their accuracy close to 100%.
