I don't think I'm giving away any great secret in pointing out that the easiest way of all is "use a laptop or get the cheapest second-hand netbook you can find for the alternative account". Unlimited-use browser phones like Iphones (or the alternatives made by other companies that are half the price and twice the quality), with their ever-changing IP addresses, are untrackable as well.
Driving around the 'burbs looking for unlocked WiFi accounts is fun, too. Isn't there a name for this?

If only I were younger I would devote days to this, till they finally started doing something intelligent with IP editing.
But I find I really don't care that much.
The funny thing is that having to deal with IP vandalism is its own punishment for refusing to deal with IP vandalism issues. It's far worse on the doofuses at WP than any vandalism I could do in a POINT-y way. So I'm going to keep doing minimal IP-reversion work, (except on the articles I'm in the middle of working with, where I can't avoid it) and just let them stew in their own juice.
There is some lulz to be had in tormenting the worse admins by putting funny things on their user pages at odd hours, from an IP. Just make sure it's something Cluebot won't notice, so it stays there for a goodly time. You can't delete stuff wholesale or use swearwords. But that leaves an awful lot of possible merryment.
