Thousands of internet users use free web proxy services to overcome censorship and unblock websites restricted in their country. Are proxy
servers really safe?Recently, Christian Haschek, an security researcher, has analyzed over 25000 open proxy servers. The special software made by researched
tested the proxies to see if proxies modified site content or allowed
users to browse websites while using encryption. And here is a result of
research: only 14% of the proxies were safe. Researcher found that 79%
of proxies forbid secure traffic (HTTPS). Free proxies are also
modifying content of websites directly. 17% of proxies change the source
code (HTML) of the websites, 9% of proxies modify Java Script. The
reason of strange proxy server behavior is the following: free proxy
servers inject advertising into websites. Besides, proxy services may
steal cookie of users – according to report.
The tech savvy users are signing up to the
VPN services. VPN or Virtual Private Network is based on the idea of tunneling. A
‘tunnel’ is simply a link between two locations through internet. A VPN
tunnel connects the two PCs or networks and allows data to be sent and
received over the Internet as if it were still within those networks.
The major thing to know about VPN: It secures your computer’s internet
connection to guarantee that all of the data you’re sending and
receiving is encrypted and secured from prying eyes.

VPN allows browsing the web anonymously. Besides, VPN prevents ISP from
tracking user's online activity. RitaVPN is one of the most popular VPN

IP address and your identity, it encrypts traffic and has no logging, so, your IP
address will never be revealed and you will be 100% anonymous while
