People debating in forums all over the Internet are seraching for ways to protect their privacy so they can speak up for what is right. Many citizens are opting for Anonymizers. Do you have any other suggestions?
you HONESTLY think you can "hide" behind an "anonymizer"?
trust me, you cross the wrong line while speaking your constitutionally protected right and "slander" the wrong person, that person *WILL* be able to find you and "press charges"... an "anonymizer" will NOT prevent them from being able to "track you down"... your ISP knows where you've been, PERIOD... that ISP *can* be summoned into court to release your web records (which they are legally obliged to keep, but not to release unless summoned)... i'm talking USA here, but many other countries operate the same way - or stricter (China, anyone?)...

of course, absolutely...
but to jump through 50 hoops when 3 is all that is required is just plain bologna, without the bun and without condiments, just plain bologna...
ie, my IP address changes whenever i unplug the modem for two minutes or more... i'm more content with "anonymizing" my IP address by something like that because it is 100% in MY control, no "middle man" that i have to BLINDLY "trust"...
ie, preventing "usage statistics" and "profiling" via cookies, PID queries, tracking links, javascript as a whole, DNS 53 lookups to DNS servers OTHER THAN the one setup on my machine, et cetera, et cetera...
but "anonymizers" - ppuulllease, you're wasting your time (and bandwidth) using those POC's...
but yeah, "to each their own"...
besides, IF i were "law enforcement" looking for "shady" characters, the "anonymizers" would be the FIRST place i looked... fyi, i have a friend in the FBI that tracks child predators, trust me on this, "anonymizers" don't do squat, lol...
