  Unfortunately, that's not *really* true.  Assuming that there's one
tiny data point tying you to a given VPN, it would be hard to prove that
you were the one blogging (or whatever).  But when you're using a VPN
for all of your traffic, it becomes fairly trivial to identify the
source.  Deniability is dead.  And this is especially true in areas
where <whoever> need not prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that a
specific individual is doing <whatever>.  Secret police don't have to
prove that a single person wrote something against <regime> -- they'll
just narrow it down to a handful of possibilities and start arresting
people.
