Heres what you do (its what I do but not for the anonymity, more to get around FIOS's filtering of incoming ports)

pay for a basic VPS (virtual private server) service, preferably linux or *bsd based. They can be had for as little as $10 a month for 5g disk (maybe more or less) and a couple hundred gig of bandwidth. I pay $25 a month for 200G monthly bandwidth allotment, which I have never even come close to and 10 gig's of disk.

Setup the VPS host as a vpn server using openvpn. Connect to it from your home network, or laptops, or whatever and that removes the ISP from snooping your traffic. The added bonus is that you can setup all your traffic to use the VPN as its default gateway which allows port forwarding, or like me, since there is no need for Warhammer or other online gaming data to route that way and waste bandwidth, use a reverse proxy and point to your internal vpn'd hosts (has to be reverse proxy as the routes are asynch and gateways generally do not like that...)

Since you control the vpn server, you can delete the logs as you see fit. Most VPS and Webhosting services to not keep traffic logs, but some might..

Its just another option.
And when someone shows up at the hosting site with a warrant, they'll gladly tell them who has that IP address.
