Staying Anonymously Online on Internet

_____________________________________________________________

Anonymous Online is basically the method of by which the people send messages and conduct business using Internet without revealing their true identity. The information that they do reveal is controlled by the user himself or herself. It includes the obvious personal information. Maintaining Internet anonymity extends far beyond the user. It includes computer information and location. Internet anonymity means to utilize the Internet without giving anyone the ability to trace or link web activity, or personal information, back to the user.
