There are times more then not, that i surf anonymously. It's another precaution i use to "Avoid I.D Theft". It Hides your I.P. Address. "Internet Protocol Address". This series of numbers is exclusive to only you. Printers routers and modems all use this to communicate with one another on a network. Its pretty much as good as your home address. Literally. If you have ever been banned from a forum or cannot access a restricted site, then you are being identified through your i.p.
There are sites that wanna charge you a monthly fee to have you surf anonymously. For some of us it may seem reasonable. They use web based proxy servers. You would head over to the sight.. punch in your website,{url}and yes, you would avoid i.d.theft this way but, with everything being filtered through a middleman makes surfing feel like dial-up. "Nightmare".
One way i stay protected is with "TOR". Just so you know i'm not affiliated with them in any way, (Though i wish i was) it's just a download worth having in this day and age. To use it to it's fullest abilities i would suggest downloading "Firefox". I have had nothing but good experiences with this browser. In fact i love it. It's endless what you can do with Firefox. It's the only browser compatible with "TOR". Say it again only browser that has the "Tor" language embedded in it. And in this browser once tor is installed can easily be enabled at the bottom
right corner.
One of the things i love is that one minute you are in Germany, the next your i.p. is bouncing in Hong Kong. It really does work and "Yes" it's free. Once you have installed it go to Google and type in "Find my I.P. It will even throw in a map to pinpoint your location. That being said Click here "Tor"
and safe surfing.
