From a linked article in TFA: "Monsegur was a Tor user, although he was caught after logging on to IRC without going through Tor."
So he forgot to route IRC through Tor. Luckily there are a couple live distros that do it automatically, like tails. There are also VPN that accept payment in bitcoin, so anonymity is still preserved.
This doesn't matter in the scope of the article though, since obviously we are talking about people who are not going to any precautions to hide their privacy.
