How to Stop the Legal Spies!

The insurmountable rush in googling ways of feeling the charm of the invisibility blanket again did not go unnoticed and here are some of the best tricks everyone should have up their sleeves!

First Step First: Using HTTPS

The elementary step to secure your digital horizons after the repealing of Broadband Privacy Rule is to use HTTPS protocol. In simple words, https protocol lets you get away with the stuff that you watch or do on a website. The downside is, it does not hide the websites you visit from you Internet Service Providers (ISPs) i.e. the real culprit behind the scene.

An alternative way of using this simple technique is getting an easy-to-install HTTPS Everywhere extension. It works smoothly in Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Firefox for Android. Get the small handy tool right now and get rid of half of the worries right away!

Get to Know Your Messaging Apps!

WhatsApp was created out of a simple desire of being able to talk to his dear ones privately. Yes, the CEO respected privacy so much that he ended up earning millions of dollars by providing the privacy privilege and services worldwide.

Other applications like Simple do not store any information about who you are talking to and what you are talking about thanks to end-to-end encryption! No third party can intervene thanks to the tightly shut doors to the not-welcomed-at-all snoopers.

Proxy: The Online Battlefield Where You Get Protected!

Online proxy services are free of cost and are easily available. Very similar to VPN though, they help in swiping away your trail off the dusty land of internet where the intruders wait for you to slip any second. By encrypting all online activities as well as your IP address (Your Virtual ID), proxies have been popular since ages.

Why choose a VPN then? Because proxy services come with a data and bandwidth limit and nothing infuriates the user more than being left desperate looking for more secure pathways. A VPN subscription is always the wise call.

Tor Networks, the Ultimate Data Bouncer

What really makes it easy for ISPs to track you is your IP Address along with the passage your data follows. In order to dodge the mafia bent on getting scoops of personal information, Tor Networks toss your data around between several servers making it impossible to trace it back to you, the internet user.

The additional encryption tagged along with the above facility makes it perfect for staying safe. As simple as downloading it from a browser, it needs no technical user guide.

The Final Blow: Knowledge!

Being aware of your rights and the rules that are in your favour can be put to great use! Many Internet Service Providers set the default option of allowing them to take your data history. To get them off your back, all you have to do is call them and make sure they switch it to “Do not track data!”

Ignorance could lead to millions of people accessing internet carefree while being spied upon. Hence, one call could set things right for you. In case our ISP refuses to cooperate due to their stern policies, opt for more flexible ISPs to finally take the breath of relief.

A World without the Broadband Privacy Law

Obama’s and Edward Snowden’s lifetime achievements were all about spreading awareness amongst the local Americans of the threats to their extreme exposure of their private lives. Seeing those efforts go down the drain makes every human’s heart bleed.

Unable to do anything except adapting safer ways of browsing internet, it gets harder to believe that the government is actually concerned about the welfare of Americans. Even in hard times, hope is not lost thanks to VPNs, Proxy and Tor Networks at our service as guards in the battlefield against the ISPs and unethical but sadly-lawful priers.

Stay Safe America!

If you are still not sure about the dangers the revoking of privacy of online users entails, watch the movie Snowden (2016) in order to have a good look at the infiltration level of the government. The story revolves around NSA’s illegal surveillance leaks and that is only the tip of the iceberg.

You never know how deep they really and already are into our systems already. Better gear up against them and better be safe than sorry!
