Anonymity & privacy information
The Internet has become an essential part of the daily lives of most people. However, few people give even a second thought to the privacy issues that are associated with our web browsing and what kind of information we give up just by using the Internet in a normal fashion.
Small text files are created by almost every website or advertisement you view and allow rich multinational corporations to build a permanent, commercially valuable record of what kind of person you are. Every email you send go through multiple control points and is most likely scanned by profiling software belonging to the NSA or some other acronym organization. It is not at all uncommon for criminals to perpetuate fraud and identity theft using information pieced together from social networking sites, forums and other online places where most likely you too spend a great deal of your online time.
Corporations, criminals and governments all have this interest in you, because information is power, and the power they want over you is not meant to be utilized to serve your interests. It is therefore important to understand the basics of the technologies that power the online experience, and guard your privacy. Anonymity.com was created to cater to this need by encouraging awareness of and informing about online privacy issues.
