Anonymous browsing is the ability to browse the Web without being tracked.
Using “sniffers”, someone could find out your IP address, cookies, what’s in your browser’s cache, what type of computer you’re using… they could even connect to your hard drive and access your private files, including passwords and bank details. information.
Websites and others can detect information about you, including your IP address. You can be found and tracked using your IP address very easily. Your IP address gives hackers an entry into your computer.
Anonymous or proxy servers work by retrieving web pages for you. They hide your IP address and other important browsing information, so the remote server doesn’t see your information, but the proxy server’s information.
Browsing with an anonymous proxy site/service is simple: all you do is enter the URL you want to visit anonymously, and you’ll be able to browse leaving virtually no trace that you were ever there. Basically, when you use an anonymous proxy and enter the URL you’d like to visit anonymously, the anonymous proxy fetches the pages BEFORE they are sent to you. In this way, the IP address and other browsing information that the remote server sees does not belong to you, it belongs to the anonymous proxy.
When you browse the Internet, your computer lets all the other computers know who you are by giving out information like your IP address, browser type, and a ton of other information. The goal is to hide all this information from other computers and this is called anonymous browsing.
Every time you browse the web, you leave traces of your Internet activity that can reveal your true identity. Any URL you access may collect and record information about you, such as your IP address, location, browser type, browser language, operating system you are using, web pages you last visited, and other information you wish to keep confidential.
Hackers, identity thieves, spammers, and others who want access to your personal information can monitor your browsing habits and activities, spy on you, steal personal information, and take advantage of security holes in your system to harm your computer.
There are literally hundreds of free anonymous proxies. An estimated 90% of all computers are infected with spyware that can allow criminals to learn passwords and bank account numbers, basically giving them access to everything on your computer.
The IP address (Internet Protocol address) is your Internet identification number. Everyone has an IP address to communicate on the Internet, it’s like a phone number or a postal address. Using your IP it is possible to know your country, city, internet provider and even physical address. Hackers and identity thieves can use this information to steal personal information, spy on you, or damage your PC.
While most sites use operating system and browser information to provide a better browsing experience, hackers can also use this information for virus attacks to gain access to your hard drive, steal personal information, or cause damage. to your computer.
