Well... PROXY or VPN for Privacy?

They both seem to have their down sides, including some pages not displaying right, or slowdown, not really making you totally hidden either..!!

    There are plenty of reliable VPN providers out there that will give you a good level of privacy / encryption for secure browsing. Always best to use one with different country servers. Also good for downloading torrents anonymously and opening up blocked or restricted site.

    VPN is better but the problem is they are too expensive the good ones. Proxies are a good alternative but they are not that secure.

    Try SecurityKISS Tunnel, best VPN service out there, reliable, secure, free of ads, they have a free version very cool, they have paid packages with more things and are very affordable.
