Ninja Cloak: A Free Anonymous Web Based Proxy Service
Websites regularly track IP addresses, visitor logs, browser type and operating systems, and other information about the people who use their sites. Most do so in a responsible manner, but who has time to read the privacy policy of every website they visit? It is possible to preserve anonymity and also protect against malware and viruses: by using a proxy server. A proxy server is essentially a third party which is placed between a user’s computer and the websites that they visit. All traffic is routed through that proxy. Ninja Cloak uses this technique to help protect users' privacy online.
About Ninja Cloak Proxy Service
There is no software to install with Ninja Cloak. To use it one simply types in the URL of the site one wishes to visit on Ninja Cloak home page. Scripts and referrers can also be blocked/unblocked. Because there is nothing to install on a computer, this service is also valuable if one is accessing the web from a public computer and does not wish to leave a record of where they have been.
Usage
With Ninja Cloak one can browse web sites from behind firewalls with blocked ports. This can be useful if there are sites one needs to legitimately visit from a work environment, but which the company has blocked or banned for various security or efficiency reasons. That said, Ninja Cloak cooperates with law enforcement if it is shown that their proxy server has been used to attempt to mask illegal activity. See the Terms of Service for more information.
