Anonymous Web Surfing For Privacy Protection

By Garrick Maxwell

Anonymous web surfing can protect your privacy. Information is power, and many sites collect information about you and your surfing habits. As mega internet sites expand, the information they gather about you grows, because their reach over the internet grows.

Some people think that a web site can only track a visitor's internet activity until they leave their web site. This is wrong. A web site can place a cookie on your computer and then track your Internet activity even when you leave their site.

There are plenty of reasons to try anonymous web surfing. For protecting against identity theft; anonymous web surfing can help hide your activity from prying eyes- eyes that monitor your every move.

All your internet activity can be recorded. This includes your emails, instant messages, and what you look at online can be stored and continuously collected.

Anonymous web surfing or secure tunneling, as the hackers like to say, is the shielding and encrypting of your activities on the internet. What sites you visited, who you chatted with, and what you downloaded are all hidden from anyone keeping a close eye on your business. SSH Tunneling sites provide software and ports. Here's how they work.

By encrypting data and using a single port for all activities, anonymous web surfing makes it impossible to restrict a user's access or gather their private information. This is beneficial to anyone who uses the internet. Unfortunately, identity theft is also a big part of the internet community, and therefore something that needs to be protected against.

Sites that offer anonymous web surfing software start around $10 a month, with the higher end sites topping out around $200. It seems expensive, but that all depends on how much you value your privacy - 30201
