Worth noting that because all transactions are public, mixers aren't only for hiding from the government. They're also for hiding from the general public. Generally when you make a small purchase you don't tell the store what your bank balance is, but with crypto you do...unless you use a mixer (or a privacy coin that effectively has mixing built in).
The other way is to use a centralized exchange as your "mixer," which is transparent to the government but imposes extra fees and adds counterparty risk.
Corporate use of public blockchains will almost certainly require privacy technologies, to avoid giving information to competitors.
