Every time we search to buy products online, visit chat rooms, log in to use our internet banking, visit our favorite news or financial sites, all of this information<\/a> is logged and stored as our personal browsing history. This is done through our IP address.<\/p>\n This information about all the websites<\/a> we have visited can be used to build a profile of our browsing habits and this information is valuable to website owners, marketers<\/a> etc.<\/p>\n All of these records are stored and retained by our Internet<\/a> Service Providers (ISPs) and can easily be bought and sold to interested parties.<\/p>\n To protect ourselves from these people, we may browse the Internet anonymously<\/a> through free anonymous web-based browsing tools or by downloading anonymous browsing<\/a> software. By using either method, no record of our browsing history can be traced back to our IP address.<\/p>\n So what is the best option?<\/p>\n Anonymous web-based browsing tools are known as web anonymizers<\/a>. They are usually free to use and the process is relatively straightforward.<\/p>\n Go directly to the anonymizer website and enter the URL<\/a> of the website you want to visit. The anonymizing website then redirects you to the site’s destination, which sees the anonymizing website server as the IP address and not as your own IP identity.<\/p>\n A free web-based anonymizer is definitely a convenient option if you’re a casual surfer … however, if you surf the internet for more than two hours a day, going back and forth on the anonymizer’s website can be quite tedious. .<\/p>\n However, the biggest problem with web-based anonymizers is that most of them are not enabled with SSL<\/a> (Secure Socket Layer) or SSH<\/a> (Secure SHell) encryption. In other words, you cannot connect to banking, commercial, and other secure sites that use this technology.<\/p>\n Commercial anonymizers or anonymous browsing software are systems that you download and install as a client application. This software manages all the details of anonymous browsing for you. As soon as your browser loads, our connections are automatically anonymous … and there are no tedious visits to an anonymizing website.<\/p>\n However, the main advantage is that the best anonymous browsing software will be enabled with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or SSH (Secure SHell) encryption and will protect you not only from web browsing but from other web applications like email, ICQ, IRC, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Every time we search to buy products online, visit chat rooms, log in to use our internet banking, visit our favorite news or financial sites, all...<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":326,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[293],"tags":[436,434,437,435],"class_list":["post-317","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-anonymizers","tag-anonymous-surfing","tag-proxy-site","tag-web-based-anonymizers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=317"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=317"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=317"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/india7.org\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=317"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
