If you asked someone how you could hide your identity on the Internet, chances are you would be taken for a fraudster. A few years ago, I would have agreed with such people, but not in these dark days of the Internet. The internet is filled with so many Bobbie traps that protecting your identity is one thing you should not joke with…unless you think its cool to get hacked or cyber-robbed.
In the guide at https://www.hovatek.com/blog/how-to-change-proxy-settings-in-google-chrome-mozilla-firefox-internet-explorer-and-opera/Â , we discussed some frequently asked questions about proxies. In this guide, we will be discussing another way to anonimize your surfing using CyberGhost VPN.
