I will assume you&#39;re talking about using someone else&#39;s proxy for your traffic. Generally speaking, speed is the only consideration I have when selecting one to use. Proxy-list.org has a frequently updated and pretty expansive list. Not a bad place to start.<br>
<br>Just keep in mind that using a proxy means that anybody with access to the proxy server will be able to view any traffic that isn&#39;t encrypted on the client side (GPG is great for this). People run public proxy services for a variety of reasons, and stealing information is one of them. I don&#39;t say this to raise undue paranoia. Some of them are bad, and it may not be possible to know which ones with certainty. As long as you aren&#39;t sending sensitive information (passwords, CCN, etc), then it shouldn&#39;t be a problem.<br>
<br>Check out proxy-chains. Should be on your BT distro. Strength in numbers.<br><br>You might also be interested in Tor. I tend to avoid it though; Applebaum gives me the creeps. It&#39;s by far the most robust anonymizing service I&#39;m aware of.<br>
