some of us, users, may want to think twice before trusting our personal
information. But since it’s usually after some database has been hacked
that we realize this, it doesn’t hurt to start effecting changes in our
often overlooked surfing habits. Not all our habits are dangerous but
some could potentially cost us our credit card information or worse. A good way to protect our information on the web is to surf the web anonymously, like using Google Chrome’s Incognito mode. there are many browser available but only some of browser support Private browsing.
To do Private Browsing and also bypass your college firewall protection you can use these browser which help you to bypass and also give you facility to surf internet anonymously.
Tor or The Onion Router is,
according to its own site, “free software and an open network” that
basically defends you against network surveillance or traffic analysis.
To allow anonymous surfing, this open-source tool re-routes network
traffic through Tor nodes, which are Tor-running computers owned by
volunteers from all over the world. Not only does Tor bring anonymous internet surfing to your browser, it can also hide your country of origin for any application, prevent websites from tracking users (and their physical location) and help users bypass websites blocked by their Internet service providers (ISPs) or government.
The Tor Browser Bundle includes Mozilla Firefox, which is usually fairly fast, but with Tor, it will be a little slow as all traffic needs to pass through different Tor nodes before being displayed on your browser. Other than Tor being a bit slow, which is inevitable, Tor also blocks websites with flash content and that require browser plugins, like Java and ActiveX, since these can be manipulated into revealing a user’s IP address. The rewards can totally outweigh these drawbacks though.
If you regularly use Google Chrome, but aren’t so comfortable with Google knowing your every move on the Internet, you might want to try SRWare’s Iron web browser. Both Google Chrome and SRWare Iron are based on the open source Chromium project, so you’ll notice few differences. On the internal side, Iron, of course, has disabled Chrome’s information-collecting features, such as URL-tracker, error reporting, etc. which Google needs to improve our favorite search engine. Aside from internal differences, Iron works pretty much the way you’re used to in Chrome. Chrome extensions and themes will also work on Iron. To check it out in Windows (portable version available), head to the website.
