Remember, you're likely not as anonymous as you think you are online.

the law only needs an IP# and they can figure out the rest pretty quickly.
if you're savvy enough to chain several anonymous proxies through countries that aren't exactly USA friendly then you may have a chance of staying undercover.

I'm behind seven proxies.

Cyberspace-- I can be a Navy Seal on one website and a Playboy model on a different one. It just goes to show you that you never know who is who or what.

This made me laugh!

That's actually not as personally identifiable as the TV makes it out to be, but it does make a starting point.

The best way to stay anonymous is to use public computers where you don't need to sign in or anything, like a lot of campuses have.

A long time ago, we were in a training session where a "law enforcement officer" showed us just how easy it is to find out all kinds of information about people. The session was all put together to show how easy a child or sexual predator could learn all kinds of information from various sources and comments. When one perpetrator was captured, in order to get some kind of deal, he spelled out exactly what he did and showed just how easy it was to find out information on not only the child, but the child's mother as well.

It was very enlightening.

It kind of explains why my user name is my name and that I live in an RV. While you all might know who I am, you may not know "where" I am.

I could find out pretty quickly if I brushed up on my VB



(just kidding I've never used VB)
