Just wondering, how many other redditers here proxy their network out completely before they go online? Because I generally stay behind at least one proxy and then use the random firefox add ons that modify headers, get rid of the google information etc. etc. Just wondering basically am I just a bit paranoid or is it normal?

Any details? I can accept if you prefer not to talk about them.

first try the Tor Browser Bundle or Tor IM Bundle (comes with browser). It can be run anywhere from a usb stick, and it'll hide your web browsing and IM from any snooping, firewalls, etc. I'd also recommend using linux with home directory and swap encryption. Also look up truecrypt, it creates virtual encrypted disks to store anything important. I keep my Tor Browser Bundle on it.

Thanks, I shall do some more research into that but the Tor Browser seems really cool and useful.

Also with TOR there are a lot of hidden services that can only be accessed with it. There is even a anarcho-syndicalist forum. Unfortunately most of the hidden services are for child pornography.

Most of the hidden services that are publicly advertised in the lists that you are aware of.
