Pollute your surfing behavior

Wants to surf the Internet anonymously, use speciallized tooling … or contaminate your surfing behavior by polluting it (use the script).

Erosion of Privacy
Privacy is the new gold of the virtual world and therefore the most important mineral of the 21st century. Governments and commercial organizations show great interest in our digital behavior. Many companies earns a lot of money by selling and using your surfing behavior. Infringement of privacy is almost daily news on the Internet despite the fact that many countries have guaranteed privacy in specific legislation (such as Personal Data Protection Act in the Netherlands). Privacy erodes (see “Erosion of Privacy“).

‘Anonimize your self’ method
There are various technical solutions to anonymize your Internet behavior. Like Tails which is a complete operating system that preserves your privacy and anonymity. Or use TOR that is based on encryption and anonymous proxies. The easiest way is to make use of duckduckgo.com as your search engine. Beside this there are plenty how-to’s on the Internet to help you (see also ‘Help I’m a terrorist‘ and ‘The End of the Free Internet‘).

‘Pollute yourself’ method
A completely other new alternative is to make it diffuse by polluting your browsing behavior. Therefore you only have to run some kind of cloaking script, like the one underneath. It constantly browse the Internet looking for completely randomized url’s. Your surfing behavior will disapear. Remember a forest is still the best place to hide a tree.

Cloaking Script:

array [1] = "http://www.telegraaf.nl/"         # initial URL
max_idx = 1                                    # array length (initial)
start                                          # start endless loop
  rnd = integer between 1 and max_idx
  display_page = get array [rnd]               # read variable URL of array
  array = all URLs's                           # put all URLs of current page in array
  max_idx = array length                       # set maximum array length
  wait for random between one and five minutes # to look human
  go to start                                  # back to beginning

(* note: the above script will convert later to Python).
