Linux HOWTO #3, Part 1: Anonymous Web Browsing with Tor

Link to Part 2: www.youtube.com LINUX HOWTO 3rd installment, Part 1 Special thanks to Linux Journal (www.linuxjournal.com) for featuring one of my videos on their web site this week. This is the third installment in a new series called Linux HOWTOS. Every week I will post a video explaining how to accomplish something using a GNU/Linux operating system. Please write requests for installments in the comments! The internet is great for many things, but not privacy. Luckily, anonymity networks like Tor and proxy servers like Privoxy can give a certain level of privacy while online. They are not perfect, but they work very well. This video needed to be split into two parts because of the breadth of the material. The first part is simply about what Tor is and how it works. The second part contains step-by-step instructions for installing Tor and Privoxy on your GNU/Linux box. If you have any questions, please ask in the comment field, and I or someone else will do our best to answer. Please avoid ‘RTFM’-style answers. They are not welcome. Also please post corrections if I mistakenly give some wrong information. ———————– This video was created using only free and open source software tools: TightVNC, Open Office Impress, pyvnc2swf, ardour2, audacity, jackd, LAME, mjpegtools, and ffmpeg.

Proxy Server – What They Are and How They Make You 100% Anonymous on the Internet

default Proxy Server   What They Are and How They Make You 100% Anonymous on the Internet

Proxy server, there is a good chance that you have at least heard of such a thing before. There is good reason for this. Proxy servers allow people to be anonymous on the internet. What is the use of being anonymous on the internet in this day and age? The two main reasons people want to use a proxy server to be anonymous is because either they are trying to access a website they normally can’t access or they don’t like webmasters and websites knowing their real location. It may sound unusual but there are hundreds if not thousands of people looking every day for either a way to setup their own proxy server or free proxies that they can use. To really be able to understand why, we need to look at the reasons people use proxy servers for in further detail.

Many websites only allow users from specific countries to browse them. There are a couple of reasons behind why this is the case, but what is important is how you can bypass website protection like this using a proxy server. A proxy server makes it possible to change your location to some where else in the world. This is how a proxy server makes it possible for you to join sites which restrict usage based on country location. Need to get an IP from America? Want an IP from New Zealand? A proxy server can make all of this possible. With an IP from another location, then no website will be able to block your access. There is no way to tell that your new IP actually comes from a proxy.

The second most popular reason people look for proxy server lists or proxy servers online is because they want to be anonymous. This has a lot to do with the first reason of websites blocking geographic location of users, but the big difference is that people want to be anonymous and not just change their IP. Many websites log user activity and monitor what you do. You can stop how much and how accurate the data websites collect by using a proxy. You can fool websites into believing you are actually someone completely different. Some people actually make it a rule to never use the same proxy twice, so as to be absolutely sure they are convering their tracks.

The only effective way to be anonymous on the internet today is with a proxy server. You can find a wide number of websites offering free proxy lists for anonymous web surfing, but the reality is that most don’t work and you need to setup your own. Only by setting up your own proxy can you be sure that it works and you are really anonymous. Don’t worry about your own proxy costing the earth. Is internet anonymity important to you? Then your own proxy server is what you need.

It really isn’t that hard to get a high anonymous proxy to change your IP with and be anonymous online with.

Web Proxy – Are They Any Good and Can They Make You Anonymous on the Internet

Most people think of a web proxy when they go looking for proxies to use. Th way a web proxy functions isn’t really much different from other proxies but there are some major differences between them. Using a web proxy to be anonymous is a big mistake, but they do still have their use. Some of the major problems these proxies suffer from are the lack of anonymity and a limit on the kind of things you can do with them. If being anonymous on the internet is important to you, avoid using a web proxy and go for an elite proxy or high anonymous proxy instead. The reasons for this are easy to see once you understand how a web proxy works and what limitations they suffer from.

The best thing you can use a web proxy for is just general internet surfing. This would limit the kind of things you do with them to just surfing websits and reading up on the latest news or other related general use. It is common for a web proxy to be called a facebook proxy because most people use them to browse facebook and similar sites with. How these proxies are called is not the key point here, always remember that a web proxy is the most basic of proxy servers and you should limit the kind of activity you use them for. The reason for this is that they offer you very limited anonymity and also are unable to display many different kinds of media on websites. Common problems with these proxies are that of javascript and being unable to load and play video content. The anonymity they give you is also limited. Web masters can easily see that you are using a proxy server and for this reason it is strongly recommended that if you want to be anonymous on the internet you should use an elite proxy server.

Elite proxy servers, unlike a web proxy, do make it possible for you to be completely anonymous and undetectable online. The IP they give you is undetectable as a proxy server IP and this makes it impossible for websites to detect that you are using a proxy server. They also do not suffer from the same kinds of limitations that web proxy servers do. Video content will play perfectly, javascript has no problem at all and in fact there is nothing that you can’t do with an elite proxy. Using this kind of proxy server to surf the internet with is no different than using your own home computer.

If you are deciding between a web proxy or an elite proxy, then it goes without saying that only use a web proxy if internet anonymity and security isn’t important to you. This would be limited to reading news, looking at pictures online and very other general basic internet usage. For anyone who wants to login to sites, watch videos online and chat with their friends, nothing is as good or as reliable as an elite proxy server for complete peace of mind. Getting an elite proxy is easy because there are plenty of websites with free proxy lists, or you can just set up your own for the absolute best proxy experience you will ever have.

Free Proxies for Anonymous Browsing

A proxy server is a computer that stands in between the website you want to browse and your computer. When you browse a particular page through the proxy server, information from the destination site is stored on the proxy server and you access the site via the proxy. In this way, you are viewing the site without revealing your IP address. I should mention however that you are revealing it to the proxy server. Proxies also enable to you visit sites that are blocked by your school or workplace. 

UK Free Proxies
For example a UK free proxy is a proxy server which is geographically positioned in the United Kingdom and is available free of cost to the user. I have found that UK proxies are generally popular choice becuase of the freedoms it gives you. Activities such as online gambling are allowed in the UK, and many popular TV services like the BBC iPlayer program operate there. I will add that a free UK proxy is not the best choice and comes with a number of dangers.

Bandwidth is Expensive so how can Proxies be Free?
Since proxies are servers that store large amounts of information, they require massive bandwidth. Bandwidth is expensive so how are providers able to provide UK free proxy servers? This contradiction alone is enough to rouse my suspicions about their safety. At best you will generally find these free proxies are so slow they prohibit you from doing many of the activities you want.

UK Free Proxies are usually Poorly Designed
My least pessimistic expectation of UK free proxies is that they are just poorly designed. Since the owners are not getting much money from it, the protocols and other parameters that are supposed to protect my identity could be substandard and my online security, the main reason I am using the proxy, could be compromised.

Transparent Proxies
I have encountered some UK free proxies to be the major fraudsters. They boast of providing anonymity but in reality some or all information is revealed to the destination site. In my experience these sites make their money from advertising or even by selling your details to the very destination site you are trying to protect yourself from.

Virus and Pop-up Advertisements
My research reveals that one of the ways that UK free proxies pay for themselves is by bombarding the user with pop-up ads so much so that it is almost impossible to view your destination site. Some of these load harmful viruses on your computer like spyware or adware, which capture your personal details and browsing history.

Proxies that Steal
UK free proxy sites are notorious for creating dummy duplicate websites almost identical to Internet banking ones. When you try to access your bank’s site through the free proxy, this duplicate page opens and all your confidential information can be stolen. I would strongly suggest that you do not use UK free proxies for any activity like this. This is the easiest way for online fraudsters, credit card thieves and identity thieves to deceive you.

At the end of the day, the key decider is what you are using the proxy for. If you are using it for serious work then make sure you know who owns the proxy, where its located and how reputed it is. Your research will probably eliminate the use of a free proxy. If you are doing something less important like trying to access a networking site from your school or work and annoyingly it’s blocked, using a UK free proxy is fine in my opinion.

Always bear in mind however that your personal information will always be at risk with a free proxy and if that’s the case, why use it at all? You may be far better off considering a trusted and well respected anonymous proxy service instead.

Many people use http proxies for the main purpose of being anonymous. In this day and age being able to be anonymous online is extremely important. Many websites restrict the kinds of visitors they allow and some countries even limit what kind of websites their users can access. There is also the problem of identity theft online. These are just a few of the reasons why people want to change their IP and be anonymous online. However, you really need to stop and think about what kind of anonymity you are looking for. Are you looking to just be anonymous online or something else? There are two basic kinds of anonymity when it comes to using a proxy server to hide your identity. One is based on youre the actual IP of your home computer and the other concept of anonymity is based on something completely different and it is something most people are unaware of.

Most people are concerned about hiding or changing their IP online with a proxy server. IPs are the primary way that computer activity online is logged and tracked. IPs make it possible for websites to block access from specific countries and also make it possible for governments to limit the kind of content their citizens can gain access to. Changing your IP makes it impossible for anyone to know who and where you really are. If this is what you call being anonymous then http proxies are one of the best ways to be truly anonymous online. You’ll be able to surf websites, watch videos, post messages, visits forum, interact live online with other users and do many other things online all without having to worry about a web master or website knowing your true home computer IP and location. You have absolutely nothing to worry about when it comes to IP anonymity with a http proxy.

What many people overlook is that while you can hide your IP easily with proxy servers, they are unable to hide the information that you revealed when you paid for the proxy. What does a proxy server have to do with your personal finances? HTTP proxies are usually paid and not free. If you spend enough time online looking you soon come to realize that free proxies are often slow and unreliable. This stems from that fact that they are free and as a result are usually abused by users. As a result the best way to get a proxy server you can rely on is to pay for it. This means that you have to pay for your proxy server somehow. This might mean providing credit card information, paypal account information or some other personal information that is usually required when making payments for goods or services online. Obviously this isn’t something you should be concerned about, but you should nevertheless keep it in mind when hunting for a http proxy server.

For the most part, proxies and http proxies are completely anonymous. The most important thing any proxy user should be concerned about is being able to change their IP online. This is the most common and important kind of anonymity that many users want and need.

Elite Proxy Servers – What is the Secret to Being Anonymous on the Internet?

How much is being anonymous online really worth to you? Can you put a price on being able to be truly anonymous and make it impossible for anyone to know your true IP and exact location? Some people want to be anonymous but they aren’t sure as to what is the best way to go about doing this. There are many proxy solutions online and some of them are anonymous while others aren’t. If you want to be able to surf the internet and be anonymous at the same time, the best solution is to use an elite proxy server that you setup by yourself. This might sound harder than it really is, but the truth is setting up your own proxy server is simple and it is the only effective way to ensure you are 100% anonymous on the internet.

There are a lot of types of proxy servers online but they aren’t all equal. In a nutshell, there are three kinds of proxies. The first kind are not anonymous. Using these proxies doesn’t change or hide your IP in anyway. Anyone can see your true location by simply inspecting your IP. Obviously this kind of proxy is pointless if you want to have any kind of anonymity online. The second kind are anonymous but anyone can detect that the IP you are using comes from a proxy server. Webmasters around the world frequently block access from any IP that is detected as being proxified. Why would they do this? Alarm bells ring for webmasters when they see someone on their website is trying to hide their identity by using a proxy. While this second kind of proxy will give you a different IP, it is easy to detect that you are using a proxy server. The only setup that gives you 100% anonymity is an elite proxy.

Elite proxies are completely anonymous. The best kind of elite proxy is one that you setup yourself because you are in complete control. When you are in control of your own proxy server you control the quality and speed of it. Why are elite proxies the best? Well, no-one has anyone of knowing that you have changed your IP and that you are using a proxy server. Your new IP via the elite proxy looks like any normal home IP. You are 100% undetectable. This is the only true way to be anonymous online. With your own proxy server you setup you also control the number of IPs you get and you can pick which country you want the IPs from. The price you pay for setting up your own elite proxy and the IPs are much cheaper than renting from so called proxy middlemen.

If you want the best anonymity solution online, then setup your own elite proxy. When you surf the internet with your own elite proxy server, you’ll be 100% anonymous and no-one will be able to detect that you have changed your IP or what your original IP was. This is the best proxy solution for anyone who is serious and understands the importance of being anonymous online today.

Anonymous Proxy and Online Security

How to speed up Mozilla Firefox! Sorry if you can’t see too much of the video. I had it in a fixed resolution so it can be seen in high definition. Quality over quantity! Firefox config instructions (what I first mentioned) : 1.Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries (type it in filter): 1. network.http.pipelining 2. network.http.proxy.pipelining 3. network.http.pipelining.maxrequests Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading. 2. Alter the entries as follows: Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true” Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true” Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. (This means it will make 30 requests at once.) 3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New then Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. For the best quality, watch full screen in HD!

Nowadays, Internet has become a very important part of our daily lives. It is being used in many operations like providing information, services, communication, and even entertainment. Most will agree that Internet can be considered a necessity. However, we cannot be sure how secure surfing the Internet is, especially when we are asked of our personal information. So how does one ensure safety while surfing the Internet? The answer is the use of an anonymous proxy.

To safeguard web users, the implementation of anonymous proxy is developed. With the use of an anonymous proxy, you can surf the net without revealing your computer’s IP address. As an Internet user you must be aware that a Web server records and logs the IP address of each website you visit, which can later be used by hackers. Anonymous proxy can prevent other unauthorized persons to access your server, thus protecting important information saved in your computer.

Anonymous proxy is not only applied for security reasons, it can also be used to enter sites that are restricted in your area. It is common for some websites to block certain IP addresses because of restrictions, while other establishments like schools and work-related places prohibits the access of some sites that of no concern to them. An anonymous proxy makes the remote server, which is the computer, to be indirectly connected to the website. The anonymous proxy is the middleman between your computer and web server, allowing entrance in any blocked website.

On the other hand, parents can also gain control of their children’s browsing capacity with the help of an anonymous proxy. By using a proxy, a parent can filter and prevent their children from entering malicious websites.

When you access a website with an anonymous proxy, the IP address being logged on the site is the proxy, and not your own. It is easy to set up an anonymous proxy, if you have the right information on hand. Anyone can manually change it through their Internet Options menu, which differs depending on their browser, but still you can change it under LAN Settings. Although setting up of anonymous proxy is easy, the problem is what and where to get the proxy to use. One can of course choose to use free proxies, which are all over the Internet, but remember that these anonymous proxies might be unsecured and wrongly configured. If you are a newbie, and have no enough knowledge on the correct application of anonymous proxies, it would be unwise to do it yourself. You might want to search for a provider that can offer you more security. Without the proper technical knowledge, the use of anonymous proxy might give problems rather than give protection.

There are so many free offerings of anonymous proxy servers in the Internet that might get your attention. Remember that there also risks in using one, but the most common victims are those without prior technical knowledge. The best you can do is to be attentive, compare, and of course read privacy policy of the anonymous proxy you want to use.
