No; there'd be no reason to require an ID for buying a gift card. All you're basically doing is exchanging paper money for "plastic" money. And...
Yes, but that's the whole point of using an anonymity service such as a VPN... so that you don't become a target for ISP monitoring in the first...
Having a "man on the inside" certainly helps, i.e., a trusted friend or associate who has specific technical knowledge of the VPN setup (Apache...
Rejection of friend requests on FB is generally considered rude, so it doesn't surprise me that people were willing to give the benefit of the...
I agree, but IMHO the Facebook tracker is the worst offender because it's so blatantly tied to your REAL identity (i.e., your full name)......
There's no legitimate reason for a VPN provider to log the incoming external IP address of the client in order to combat abuse. Even if they *do*...
Nope; I agree with what you posted. In that case, I probably should have just quoted Pryvate's comment instead of both. Sorry for any confusion. ;)
There's one thing you have to remember: Not all VPN providers are cut from the same cloth. It's not always about the money. Some of the founders...
Yes, definitely. Here are a couple of recent postings on the issue: Blogger claims that Facebook keeps tracking users after they have logged out...

Here's what I would do: 1. Go to Control Panel | System | Advanced system settings | Performance: Settings | Advanced | Virtual Memory: Change...
Those suggestions are not within the realm of possibility, considering the fact that the leaked list of 1,589 "names" is actually just a list of...
That brute force calculator on cyber-junkie.com seems buggy. Apparently, there are only five (5) words in the English language dictionary. :P...

If, at any time prior to running the cleaners, you had emptied the recycle bin the "normal" way (i.e., without overwriting), then it makes sense...
What you're probably looking for is a basic proxy-switcher tool that uses anonymous HTTP proxies. If you use Firefox, I think there are at least...
Your public IP address is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx No tricks. Just a basic display of the IP from your HTTP header. :)
The way I deal with referrers is simply not to click on certain hyperlinks. If need be, I'll just do a "Copy Link Location" and manually paste...
I just did a test post using the first proxy (via Firefox), and it worked perfectly fine for me. There must be some other variable(s) involved...
I just tried a couple of random Glype proxies, and they both seemed to work fine on the site in question: http://coverproxy.com/index.php...
That's cool, but I think you should at least consider upgrading to the latest version of Firefox, though. One of the greatest privacy...
