Effective Way To Surf The Internet Anonymously And Safely

With the combination of the proper tools, you can be in any part of the word and be almost untraceable, this does not mean that you will not be able to be tracked. If you make a mistake, one of those mistake can be that you din’t verify if you don’t have an dns leak and revealing where are you are.

The tools you can use to maintain anonymity are macchanger, proxy chains and tor. While macchanger is use to spoof the MAC address of the computer and make a little bit harder to identify the device used to surf the internet, proxy chains and tor you will send the data across multiple proxy to maintain anonymity on the web.

First step is changing your mac address and in order to make that change we have to do the following.

ifconfig to see what interface you want to change the mac address.

ifconfig
ifconfig
after you decide what mac address you want to change in this case i will chose wlan0
ifconfig-down
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down
this will let you change the mac address of the selected interface, next step is changing the mac address, with the command “–help” you can learn how to use the tool.
macchanger --help
macchanger –help
macchanger have a vendor list in case you want to pose as a specific vendor.
macchanger -l
sudo macchanger -l wlan0
after you decide if you are going to change the mac address, I used the “-a to set a random vendor to manually set the mac address the command is macchanger “-mXX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.
macchanger -a
sudo macchanger -a wlan0
after you decide if that’s the mac you want, bring the interface up with the ifconfig command.
ifconfig up
sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
Now that we have change our mac address the next step is going to configure our proxy chains, the config file of the proxy chains in on /etc/proxychains.conf using sudo vi /etc/proxychains.conf you can edit this file.
proxychains-config
sudo vi /etc/proxychains.conf
In this file we must make the following changes:

Uncomment by deleting the # dynamic_chain line
Comment with a # strict_chain line
Add to end of file: socks5 127.0.0.1 9050

After the file have been modified, start tor service to send the traffic across multiples nodes and be anonymous on the internet.
tor-service
sudo service tor && sudo service tor status
With tor running we can start surfing the internet anonymously and safely.

Now run a dns leak test to make sure that you are not leaking your real location to the internet and not be able to be anonymous.
