Did you know that every time you visit a website, you leave your digital fingerprints behind? Other websites can track many aspects of your visit such as your I.P. address (tells them where you are located), the browser you are using (Firefox, Explorer etc.), and many other information without you knowing.

Many websites will also leave a cookie on your computer and track your web surfing activities. This is an invasion of privacy. Websites and Big Companies mine our internet activities to learn more about us even when we are not on their website.

Imagine this, everything you do online can be tracked and recorded for others to see. Your emails, instant messaging, chat sessions, sites you have visited and more can easily be traced and recorded if you are not surfing anonymously.

By surfing the web through a proxy, anonymously, you have the advantage of hiding your digital fingerprints from websites. Surfing the web anonymously hides all your internet activity from everyone. This method even prevents your own internet service provider from knowing what you do online.

Surfing the web via a proxy surfer and anonymously also gives you access to websites that usually restricts your real I.P. from connecting to their sites. There are many websites that ban certain I.P’s from accessing their websites for security reasons. Your I.P might be in that list. By using a proxy server, your I.P. is generated differently and you will get access to these websites.

Using proxy or anonymous surfing techniques also protects you from identity thieves, hackers and other people with malicious intent.
