This free extension for Google Chrome lets users browse the internet anonymously and privately by rerouting all traffic through a series of remote servers.
anonymoX
anonymoX is a Windows plugin for the popular Chrome web browser. It provides tools for protecting personal information from online trackers and hiding the real IP address. Additionally, you can bypass regional limitations to access various geo restricted websites.
How it works
With the help of this extension users are able to mask online activity and prevent tracking by advertising services. This is achieved by rerouting all incoming and outgoing packets through an encrypted proxy server. The actual anonymization and country faking are done by a remote distributed network.
The service is free of charge. However, advertisements are displayed from time to time during web surfing.
Configuration
You can quickly change the fake identity by clicking the icon on the main browser toolbar. Additionally, there is a toggle for switching the plugin on and off. All network traffic is automatically encrypted to prevent potential data leaks. Instruments for blocking third party ads and removing suspicious cookies are included as well.
It is possible to manually select the server for connection from the provided list. This function is helpful for identifying the best available option in terms of speed and latency.
