Is it even possible to avoid the FBI?

I read this article about the BreachForums incident, and in the article they mention that the IP adress of one of his four vpn’s overlapped with activity on other websites. His IP was also linked to some very old emails containing his name, they also somehow found his alt email account. They used GPS from the phone service provider to track his location. They connected bitcoin adressess to purchases he made.

So my question is: how exactly does one avoid getting caught?

Sure this guy isn’t very safe for being a hacker, but he was still a notorious figure with experience. And they found 10 different ways to find out information about him. I just find it insane but also impressive.
