How to Stay Safe With a Proxy
A proxy is a website that allows you to bypass Web restrictions such as Internet filters, firewalls and proxy blocks that are generally set into place by network administrators. To stay safe with a proxy, you must look for a proxy site featuring a safe interface that provides anonymity and protects your privacy while you surf the Internet. Fortunately, there are various proxy sites online that will keep you safe when you access websites that are being restricted in your network.
