Hide your IP address when Searching Google
Hide your IP address when Searching Google
Use Google through a PROXY for free. Google searches reveal a shocking amount of personal information about you, such as your interests, family circumstances, political leanings, medical conditions, and more. This information is modern-day gold for marketers, government officials, hackers and criminals - all of whom would love to get their hands on your private search data. Startpage Protects Your Privacy! Startpage, and its sister search engine Ixquick, are the only third-party certified search engines in the world that do not record your IP address or track your searches. Get it here FREE-> https://startpage.com/eng/download-startpage-plugin.html |

I forgot to mention that once you get your list of startpage/google results, look at the end of each result for 'View by Ixquick Proxy'. If you click on that, Ixquick will open the page for you anonymously. Your computer will be invisible to the site.They see only Startpage's IP address, not yours. Since you never make direct contact with the website, they can't see or store cookies on your browser. Also, you can click on linked pages from the website and the Startpage proxy will display those for you too. I use these guys a lot. A little later, I will share my Private VPN browser. For total internet anonymous protection with over 2000 bit encryption to the host computer. enjoy |

Doesn't using a proxy compromise your bandwidth speed?

Some, but I use a fast service with computers all over the world.
6 Servers in USA, 600Mb/s bw 4 Servers in UK, 400 Mb/s bw DE,NL,HU,CN,LX,UA,HK servers If I choose one nearby, I can barely tell. My home bandwidth is only 1.5 mb and I'm not a gamer. I don't require much. Streaming Audio and Video are all I demand. |

It's a pre-pay and I can put it in a metal RF proof sleeve when not in use, if I want. But I don't. I bet one could find out how to hack or change SIMM cards etc. for ATT, T-mobile phones that use them. A vhf/uhf handheld radio with a keyboard can access a remote phone patch and make phone calls while you are mobile. Hams use those. Last edited by JohnW; 04-02-2012 at 11:18 AM. |

Thanks, that is a great tip. I normally use private proxies. For a monthly fee I get my proxies updated every now and then. I am given a list of IPs:Ports and then in Google Chrome I go to Tools > Settings > Advanced > Change Proxy Settings > Lan Settings and enter your IP and Port. I like private proxies. I know they cost a dollar, but it is worth it. The speed is great.

The Onion Router
Use Tor The Onion Router
Check Tor is working https://check.torproject.org/ Tor website https://www.torproject.org/ I run some exits on fibre as a public service http://n58.bgcaus.com:9030/ Though it may be used by devos and stalkers you can also use it to hide from them.
