ELI5 and what other options do we have for uploading images anonymously

Just using a vpn like /u/hepatitis-c said would be good enough?

I don't get how this can deanonymize users. The article says that no decryption is required on either side of the channel, but when packets are leaving my computer, they're encrypted one time for every machine in the tor circuit due to the onion protocol, aren't they? How could my isp/cloudfare/nsa know that that is cloudfare traffic?
