Correction of typo in my last comment for you: Properly informed use of the technologies that I mentioned will keep others from tracing or decrypting messages.
It is PROBABLY wider than just email that they spy on. Probably Yahoo Messenger, maybe even the free voice chat, kinda like Skype, too. And their picture service - isn’t that Flickr? or Yahoo 360?
THEY may not be spying on you...but Eschelon is! LOL. We can run, but we can’t hide.
Yep - you’re right on all points. This is one of the consequences of the price of memory dropping so much.
These days though you need a warrant to garner the information, but the technology has been around for a long time.
Guess what HONEY....the government has been hacked into many times. They’re so inept they can’t even protect their own computers. Hacking happens all the time and many never even know it. Internet stalking? lmao Hacking and stalking 5-10 years.
Who gives a sh*t if some proxy server in a foreign country or elsewhere knows your IP that you share with thousands of others? Unless you are committing a crime or doing something wrong, it’s irrelevant. HONEY, since I’ve never even had a parking ticket, I highly doubt anyone would go to that trouble.
Dynamic/Static IP. Look it up.
Bingo! Finally someone on here that knows what they are talking about.
You’re a moron. They are going to that trouble to find millions of people who have done nothing wrong? GET REAL!!!! This thread is about snooping, spying, not about catching criminals. You got way off track here.
But let’s say that all that you’re after is keeping visited sites from logging your IP. Learning to use a single proxy built for that purpose will do it, if no criminal or libellous activity is involved

Exactly, Nahanni seems to think wanting to maintain privacy means you are doing something illegal and the inept government is going to try to track you down. This thread is about spying and snooping, not hiding because you did anything wrong.
Yea, mine too. Regardless, it’s none of their business.
Absolutely!! Well, sometimes they might get a lil thrill up their leg from it....
LOL
