ORBOT: ANONYMITY THROUGH TOR ON YOUR ANDROID DEVICE

By // No comments:

It is the official version of the tor onion routing service. Orbot is an application that allows mobile phone users to access the web, instant messaging and email without being monitored or blocked by their mobile internet service provider. Orbot brings the features and functionality of Tor to the Android mobile operating system.
Orbot uses Tor to encrypt your Internet traffic and then hides it by bouncing through a series of computers around the world.
The best part is Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis.Can be used for proxy to break the restriction put around by the service provider.We can say that it is one of the safest way to access the net today.

After installing you have to configure the Orbot and Tor on your device. Cause simple installing will not automatically anonymize our mobile data.
Now, to enable advance options like Transparent proxying you need to have a rooted device. If you provide root access to Orbot you can configure the installed Apps to work with it.
Now, to enable advance options like Transparent proxying you need to have a rooted device. If you provide root access to Orbot you can configure the installed Apps to work with it.
However, if you do not have a rooted device or in case you did not provide it 'Superuser' access. In order to benefit from Tor, you will need to use Apps built to work with Orbot, or that supports HTTP or SOCKS proxy settings. SO, in this case you can either download 'Orweb' a browser made to work with Tor. Or you can download the add-on of firefox to make it work with Tor.
Orweb as in our opinion is just a basic browser and might not seems appealing enough in front of chrome or Firefox. So our recommendation is use the Firefox add-on to access net through Tor. But in this case too, remember to disable the proxy when not using Tor.
You can download Orbot from Google Play Store link.

Private Browsing is a quite awesome feature which is now a days is found in every popular browser. Some browser uses different name for private browser, it is known by incognito mode in Chrome and by InPrivate Browsing in Internet Explorer. In this post I will explain how you can always start Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer and Opera in private browsing mode.

Benefits Of Private Browsing :

  • PRIVACY : Websites you visit in a private window aren't saved in the browser history. Also the history of download files and other queries will not be kept. If you bookmark something that will be saved as usual.
  • SECURITY : All new cookies are deleted after you close all private browsing windows. So even if you forget to sign out of an account after doing your work, you will be automatically signed out when you close the private windows.
  • MULTIPLE SESSIONS WITH SAME WEBSITE : Cookies aren't shared between normal and private windows so you can use the private window to log in to a second account on any website without logging out of the first one. That means you can open up two Gmail/Facebook/other accounts in the same browser one in normal and one in private.

Steps To Always Start Private Browsing in Firefox :
