The Need For Online Privacy
All Internet-connected computers and other devices are assigned an IP (short for "Internet Protocol") address. IP addresses are used to both identify a computer and for addressing network communications to and from it. Any website that you visit can detect your IP address and then use it to find more information about you, to track you online, or even to discover your real-world identity.
How Can I Hide My IP Address?
With free web-based proxy sites. These proxies enable you to anonymize your IP address by acting as an intermediary between your computer and websites. The way it works is simple: you connect to the proxy server, type in a webpage address, the proxy then connects to the website and requests the webpage on your behalf, and provides it to you. In short, when you use a proxy, the websites you visit will see a completely different IP address that can't be used to track you.
