Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is the company that gives you access to the internet. Every website you visit, every message you send, and every file you download passes through your ISP infrastructure first. Your ISP assigns your IP address, handles your DNS queries by default, and has technical visibility into your internet traffic at ... Read more
Your IP address is the identifier that connects your device to the internet — and to every website, service, and network you interact with. Knowing how to check it takes under a minute on any device. More importantly, understanding what your IP address reveals about you is the first step toward managing your online privacy ... Read more
The choice between a free proxy and a paid proxy is not simply about cost — it is about risk, reliability, and what your data is actually worth to you. Free proxies are abundant and require no payment. Paid proxies charge a subscription or usage fee. Understanding exactly how each model works, what trade-offs you ... Read more
When choosing a proxy, you will encounter two primary types: HTTP proxy and SOCKS5 proxy. Both hide your IP address from destination servers. But they work at different layers of the network stack and support fundamentally different types of traffic. Choosing the wrong type leads to connection failures, unexpected data exposure, or simply not being ... Read more
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) encrypts your internet traffic and routes it through a server in a location you choose. Websites see the VPN server IP instead of yours. Your ISP cannot read your traffic or see which sites you visit. Your connection is protected from interception on any network. Over 1.5 billion people use ... Read more
A WebRTC leak is a browser-level vulnerability that exposes your real IP address to websites — even when you are connected to a VPN. It is caused by WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication), a legitimate browser technology used for video calls and peer-to-peer file transfer. The problem is that WebRTC discovers device IP addresses using a ... Read more
A DNS leak happens when your DNS queries — the requests that translate domain names like google.com into IP addresses — bypass your VPN tunnel and go directly to your ISP servers instead. The result: your ISP can see every website you visit, even though your IP address appears hidden. DNS leaks are one of ... Read more
Using a proxy is legal in Indonesia. There is no Indonesian law that specifically prohibits proxy use for legitimate purposes. The primary internet law — UU ITE (Law No. 11 of 2008 and its amendments) — targets illegal content and cybercrime, not the networking tools people use to access the internet. This guide explains the ... Read more
The safety of a proxy depends on three things: who operates it, how it is configured, and what you use it for. Some proxies are run responsibly by legitimate companies with genuine privacy protections. Many are not — they are set up specifically to profit from the data flowing through them. Understanding the risks allows ... Read more
