You're not any more obscure having a varying IP address assigned from a
constant pool of them by an ISP that logs every assignment, accessing
remote services that can easily identify you either way.
It's a fruitless goal, which you're trying to obtain by a process that
might itself cause you some of the problems you're trying to avoid. Namely
drawing attention to yourself.
Proxies, reputable privacy services, Tor, JAP, etc....
There's so many useful alternatives it's a waste of time to even debate
the issue, let alone waste time trying to actually do it.
