I believe proxy hosting is a tool,a tool that hides your identity. There are various proxy offers out there,with different security levels. I would like DP members to share their views on this and if possible explain why they are using that proxy host provider.
Onion Routing is much safer. Look up TOR and Privoxy on google. You'll find a lot of information about it.
Never knew there were other options Cool . thanks! I dont actually use Anonymous proxys because you only get the behaviour you want from the site when you subscribe... As for Proxys on the web , am aware of them but never used them...
Proxy Hosting is part of hosting services not as tool in my view. Web proxy currently more popular, not just simply to use but its free for user or for proxy site owner
The proxy owner could capture your logins very easily. . . people should think of security in layers. Tor is great, but has a published flaw, so maybe if you combined it with a proxy you would be even more leet
