SSHTUNNEL SOCKS (FREE)

SSHTUNNEL SOCKS is an internet protocol that offers users a greater degree of anonymity than they set out with initially. When you connect to a SOCKS proxy, your Internet traffic is routed through a third-party server via Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Over the course of this process, you’re assigned a brand new IP address; this change in your IP address means that web hosts can’t pin down your exact physical location.

SOCKS proxies are ideal for scenarios that require bypassing regional filters. If you’re on the hunt for encryption, though, you may need to look elsewhere. Implementing a SOCKS protocol alone does not guarantee privacy and will not keep you safe from government surveillance or attacks that occur on Public WiFi. Because it doesn’t run through every application, regular browsing is not always safe.
