For example, a public IP address connects an Internet Service Provider\u2019s (ISP) network to the internet. A public IP address is different from the private IP address assigned by your router.<\/p>\n<p>Every network connected to the internet has a different public IP address. And their geo-location is easily revealed through the IP address. If you are in Australia, your ISP\u2019s public IP address can reveal your city, state, and of course, the country.<\/p>\n<p>It is why hiding the IP address is so important to achieve privacy on the internet.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"iprovpn_btn_cta_row\">\n    \t<a class=\"btn_cta\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/buy-vpn\" title=\"Get iProVPN Now\">Get iProVPN NOW <i class=\"fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n    \t<\/div>\n    \n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Ways_to_Hide_IP_Address_Online\"><\/span>3 Ways to Hide IP Address Online<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It should now be apparent how important an IP address is for communication over the internet and why hiding the IP address can protect your privacy.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, there are some easy ways to cover your tracks online. Here are some of the ways to hide IP address online.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Virtual_Private_Network_VPN\"><\/span>Virtual Private Network (VPN)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Nothing beats a VPN when it comes to hiding the IP address online. It combines speed, security, and privacy in a robust package that any other solution cannot match.<\/p>\n<p>A VPN creates a virtual tunnel for secure internet access between a client and a VPN server. The benefit of using a VPN? Your IP address gets masked by the VPN server\u2019s IP address. All destinations read the VPN server\u2019s IP address instead of yours. It allows you to stay anonymous on the internet by using a VPN server as the intermediary for your every internet request.<\/p>\n<p>iProVPN gives you convenient access to VPN servers worldwide. Just download the iProVPN app on your device and connect to a VPN server.<\/p>\n<p>Once you are connected to a VPN server, you can confirm your new IP address through our tool <a href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/what-is-my-ip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>. Now, you can surf the web privately.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tor_Browser\"><\/span>Tor Browser<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Tor is a special web browser used to access The Onion Network (Tor). It is a decentralized network comprising of thousands of nodes that are users acting as a part of the network to facilitate the routing.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever you connect to the Tor network, it passes your internet traffic through three different nodes. The first node connects to you, and the other two nodes do not know your identity. Encryption is applied at every node to ensure security and anonymity.<\/p>\n<p>The downside of Tor is speed. It is significantly slower compared to a VPN.<\/p>\n<p>Internet traffic has to travel three different nodes before reaching the destination. It\u2019s a double-edged sword. Because of this functionality, Tor is much slower than normal browsing. It is not ideal for everyday browsing but works great at ensuring anonymity on the internet.<\/p>\n<p>Another downside is that you do not have control over which nodes you can connect to. Tor\u2019s nodes. It means that if you want to use Tor to watch Netflix USA, it\u2019s nearly impossible since you cannot guarantee a <a href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/servers\/usa-vpn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USA IP address<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>VPN is the safest way to watch <a href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/streaming-vpn\/netflix-vpn\">Netflix VPN<\/a> any time you want.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Proxy_Server\"><\/span>Proxy Server<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A proxy server takes your internet traffic and forwards them to the right destination. Compared to a VPN, it is far less robust. Firstly, it works on a browser level which means only HTTP traffic can be sent through the proxy server. If you have an app like Netflix on your device, the proxy server does not handle that.<\/p>\n<p>It is also limited in encryption. As you connect to a proxy server, it\u2019s only using HTTPS to encrypt the internet traffic, which does not protect your DNS queries. Your ISP can still see the web activity even if you pass the internet traffic through a proxy server.<\/p>\n<p>A proxy service does not secure your web browsing through features like adblock, DNS\/IP leak protection, WebRTC leak protection.<\/p>\n<p>Many proxy services online are free, which makes them appealing to users. However, they are not without risks. It is extremely risky to trust a service that is providing any service for free. Free proxy services and free VPN servers sell data to advertisers for profit.<\/p>\n<p>Remember the rule: if you are not paying for the product, you are the product.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Connect_to_VPN\"><\/span>How to Connect to VPN<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Connecting to iProVPN is extremely easy.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Get the <a href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iProVPN app<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Choose a <a href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/servers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VPN server<\/a> to connect.<\/li>\n<li>Go online to browse privately.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_%E2%80%93_VPN_Is_the_Best_Privacy_Tool\"><\/span>Conclusion &#8211; VPN Is the Best Privacy Tool<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When you consider all the factors, a VPN is the best tool for privacy.
