FAQ

• What is anonymity on the internet?

  Anonymity on the internet refers to the ability to hide one's identity and location while using the internet.

• How does the "My Anonymity" service determine my level of anonymity?

  The "My Anonymity" service analyzes various parameters, including the use of proxies, VPNs, Tor, the presence of anonymizers, blacklist checks, WebRTC, and other factors to determine your level of anonymity.

• What is a proxy and how does it affect my anonymity?

  A proxy server can be used to relay network requests and hide your real IP address, thus increasing your level of anonymity.

• How can using a VPN enhance my anonymity?

  A Virtual Private Network (VPN) creates an encrypted connection between your device and a remote server, allowing you to hide your real IP address and provide an additional level of anonymity.

• What is Tor and how does it affect my anonymity?

  Tor (The Onion Router) is a browser that routes your traffic through multiple nodes, providing anonymous access to the network. Using Tor can increase your level of anonymity.

• How does an anonymizer affect my anonymity?

  Anonymizers can be used to conceal your real IP address and provide anonymous access to the network, thus increasing your level of anonymity.

• What is a blacklist, and how does its presence affect my anonymity?

  A blacklist contains IP addresses that have been blocked or otherwise restricted. If your IP address is on a blacklist, it can negatively impact your level of anonymity.

• How does WebRTC technology affect my anonymity?

  WebRTC can pose a vulnerability in your browser that can expose your real IP address, which can negatively impact your level of anonymity. The presence of WebRTC IPs can indicate this vulnerability.

• What role does the UserAgent and UserAgent JS play in anonymity?

  The UserAgent and UserAgent JS provide information about your browser and its version. Some features of the User-Agent string can be used to identify users, so it is important to be cautious about this data to ensure anonymity on the internet.
