The internet might be a global network of information, but there is no
such thing as 'internet freedom'. Copyright laws and other related laws still
require licensing for someone to post or view any information on-line. Some
agencies, on the other hand, have taken upon themselves to restrict the data
that's available to on-line users. The government -- for obvious political
reasons, still monitors your daily internet usage. And every time you try to
access information on-line, be best assured that someone somewhere is tracking
all your on-line moves. YouTube is one of the sites that has been restricted;
in fact blocked, in several countries. Examples of such countries include
Malaysia, Pakistan, Egypt, Afghanistan, Sudan, Yemen, china and Indonesia among
other countries. So, how is the restriction done?
To answer the above query, then you'll have to understand something about an IP
address. For the sake of brevity, an IP address is your on-line signature. It's
a signature that leaves your footprints on-line for anyone to track and monitor
your on-line activities. In fact, your government and other agencies can use
your IP address to control what you watch and view on-line. And, in order to stay
safe and free, you'll be required to mask your IP address every time you access
any site on-line. Furthermore, when you hide IP address, you'll be able to
access any restricted site without anyone unveiling your true identity. So, how
do you hide your IP Address?
The best and easiest way to remain anonymous on-line is to use proxy services.
But choosing a random proxy service won't help. Instead, you have to choose a
proxy service that will guarantee you a full on-line safety and anonymity. And
if I may suggest -- from my own on-line experience, HideMyAss is one of the
best (if not the best) proxy services to use for your on-line activities, as
far as speed and reliability is concerned. And as much as there over a thousand
and one web proxy services for both anonymous and secure surfing, I can still
single out HideMyAss as my favorite. If you want to understand the reason why I
chose HideMyAss and not any other proxy service, just read the rest of this
article and if you have a different opinion, feel free to drop your suggestion
in the comment box.
To start with, HideMyAss is a free web proxy that originates from the UK. It
offers free VPN services, web proxies and anonymous emails. So what makes it
the best software? First of all, HideMyAss is one of the web proxies that
doesn't require a third party software in order to run. It simply enables SSL
to every site that you visit, which in turn reduces your risk of losing any
valuable data. In addition, this web proxy doesn't support obtrusive or
annoying pop-ups ads.
Secondly, with HideMyAss proxy, you can access restricted sites on different
platforms. For instance, you can use HMA on Windows, Linux or any other
operating system without changing anything. Besides, it still supports all
types of proxy protocols that are currently availed in the internet. These
includes PPTP, L2TP and open VPN. In addition to that, HMA is still compatible
with all the major browsers like Google chrome, Mozilla, Safari and Opera among
others.
The third reason why I would recommend HMA to anybody at any time is because
it's compatible with any devise. In other words, you can still use HideMyAss on
your smart-phone, tablet, iPad or PC. In fact, every device that can access the
internet can easily work with HideMyAss. When compared to other web proxies,
HMA is not as heavy as any of them. Thus, it can easily run on a devise with a
low access memory without slowing down the devise.
Lastly, the company behind HideMyAss is the leading proxy service provider in
the market today. The huge success for this web proxy can be attributed to the
distinctive features it encompasses as well as its pricing plan and easy
installation. Moreover, it's the only web proxy that's favored by a vast
majority of on-line proxy customers: hackers, those who need security from
spies, IP masking, those bypassing internet restrictions, anonymous web-serving
as well as those who need SSL encryptions for the sites that they visit. The
best part is that you can Anonymously stream a video from You-tube without
using a third party software -- something that's very rare with other web proxy
services, especially if you're looking for something that's absolutely free.
With that said, what is your favorite proxy to watch YouTube with?
