"Is a browser in a browser proxy actually improving anonymity or just giving false hope?"
Okay, so I’ve been testing this browser in a browser proxy thing lately, and idk… it *feels* kinda secure? Like, you’re nesting your browsing inside another layer, which sounds smart. But is it *actually* hiding my IP or just making me *think* it is?
Some sites still block me, so it’s not foolproof for bypassing restrictions. And tbh, if someone *really* wants to track you, idk if a browser in a browser proxy is enough.
Pros:
- Easy to use, no setup crap.
- Feels like an extra shield (even if it’s thin lol).
Cons:
- Slower than my grandma’s dial-up.
- Might not stop determined trackers.
What’s y’all’s experience? Am I missing something or is this just placebo privacy?
