If you absolutely want privacy on the internet, then you need anonymity,

really paranoid, TOR over a VPN from Mcdonalds Wifi with a Linux ISO on
a thumbdrive from a disposable laptop, but then you're not downloading
pirate movies.

No it has not its just that many users dont take the time to understand
how it works. my guess would be yourself included. It has never been
able to or claimed to protect you from an adversary that has total
network awareness. However in that situation using something similar to
comment you replied to is about as best practice and anonymous as you
will get but as he said if you are practising that sort of trade craft 
you are probably not downloading bad hollywood movies.
