\r\nNow, if Mr. John expects to receive an express mail at his physical address, he has to let everyone know that his address is \u201c777 Main St., Apt. #123, Austin.\u201d If he wants to send and receive information from the internet, his connected device will need an address, too.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Let\u2019s say the address assigned to his computer is 98.108.118.128. From now on, any time another device on the internet sees a request from that address, they\u2019ll reply to that address with the requested information. Believe me, all of this happens much faster than it sounds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
As explained before that each IP address is unique. It needs to be that way, since if two devices tried to use the same address, there would be an address conflict, and other devices wouldn\u2019t know where to send the information to.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
How IP Address is Assigned<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The allocation of these addresses isn’t random either. IP addresses are allocated to geographical areas around the globe. They are assigned by the\u00a0Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA)<\/a>\u00a0via the\u00a0Regional Internet Registries (RIRs)<\/a>. Each country is assigned a range of addresses to be used inside their borders.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n IANA doesn’t directly provide you with an IP address. Instead, they\u00a0allocate blocks of numbers<\/a>\u00a0to different regions. For example, the United States has a reported 1,541,605,760 addresses allocated to it, which is about 36 percent of all the IP addresses available (at least, under\u00a0IPv4<\/a>, as opposed to IPv6, but that’s a story for another time).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n If you know what to look for, you can easily tell which country a device is located in by looking at the device\u2019s IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n There are two IP versions: IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is the older version which has an space of over 4 billion IP addresses. However, the new IPv6 version can provide up to trillions of IP addresses to fulfill the need of all internet users and devices.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n An example of an IPv4 IP address would be: 506.457.14.512<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The IPv4 version used to configure IP addresses in numerical value (numbers) which may conflict with other IP addresses. That\u2019s why IPv6 adopted the hexadecimal method to provide unique IP addresses to billions of users in the world.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Example of an IPv6 IP address would be:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n 2100:0049:324a:fffa:138b:e86d:b887:1e9<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n There are a few types of IP addresses like private IP addresses, public IP addresses, static IP addresses and dynamic IP addresses. Let\u2019s talk about these different types of IP addresses one by one:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n A private IP address is the address of your device connected on the home or business network. If you have a few different devices connected to one ISP (Internet Service Provider), then all your devices will have a unique private IP address. This IP address cannot be accessed from devices outside your home or business network.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n For example: 192.168.1.1<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Private IP addresses are not unique because there are limited number of devices on your network.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n You can find out the private IP address of your device using a few techniques. If you are a Windows user, then simply go to the command prompt and enter the command\u00a0ipconfig. If you\u2019re a mac users, then you need to enter the following command\u00a0ifconfig\u00a0in your Terminal app<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n If you are using the internet on a mobile phone, then you can go to your WiFi settings to find out the IP address. iOS users can find the IP address by clicking on the \u2018i\u2018 button next to the network they are connected to. Android users can click on the network name in their WiFi settings, and it will show the IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Your public IP address is the main IP address to which your home or business network is connected. This IP address connects you to the world, and it\u2019s unique for all users.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n To find out your public IP address, simply go to whatismyip-address<\/a> site in your browser, and it will display the public IP, and other browser information.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n All private and public IP addresses can be either static or dynamic. IP addresses that you configure manually and fix them to the network of your device are called static IP addresses. Static IP addresses cannot change automatically.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The dynamic IP address configures automatically and assign an IP to your network when you set up the router with internet. This distribution of IP addresses is managed by Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). DHCP can be your internet router that assigns an IP address to your network in your home or business environment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Takeaway:<\/strong>\u00a0an IP address identifies your computer or connected device on the internet, and it can be used to narrow down your physical location. Keep this in mind \u2013 it\u2019ll make things easier to understand in the sections following this one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Whether you realize it or not, your IP address can reveal a lot more information about you that you\u2019d normally not willing to share with the world like,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \u00a0<\/strong>As a matter of fact, you can see all the information that gets leaked online when you\u2019re not browsing. By the way, you can protect you most senstive data to using our data protection tools<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This means anyone with interest can pretty accurately identify your location based on your IP.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n But what\u2019s more, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) can also use your IP address to check your online activity such as browsing habits and history, and even control your online experience.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n You might wonder why I should care about hiding my IP address, but it comes with array of benefits. Hiding your\u00a0IP address\u00a0allows you to access\u00a0blocked web sites, Hiding your geographical location, preventing Web tracking, avoiding a digital footprint, or to bypass any content filters, bans or blacklisting, stay anonymous online, work around the\u00a0IP bans, access\u00a0dark web<\/a>, and protect your identity. There are several ways to hide your IP address, and each have advantages and disadvantages<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n By keeping it hidden not only will you obtain total online anonymity, but you\u2019ll also get to experience true online freedom.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n In the same way that there are issues with leaving your geolocation services online when you are moving about, there are issues with letting your IP address location information visible for every website you visit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Primarily, there are issues about both personal and data security, as your geographic location can point out to other data about you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Let\u2019s take a look at some of the most common reasons why you want to hide your IP address,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Because most of us carry all of our personal data in our pocket everywhere, we go, personal cyber security and actual physical security overlap most of the time. If someone knows the IP geolocation of your smartphone, they know where the body holding that smartphone is.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Any malicious person who has constant access to this information can track your movements and know your schedule.\u00a0 While the hacker alone might not have any benefit to knowing this, they can sell the data collected to a wide range of criminals who will then know when you are not in your home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n As explained above, what is IP address and what kind of data it reveals, there is no place you can go online without someone watching. If you want to move around the Internet without being tracked by your ISP, ad networks, hackers or search engines, the only way is to hide the IP address. This way you can surf while maintaining your privacy<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Your workplace or school may restrict access to your favorite fantasy baseball site or your school blocking Netflix to keep your mind on your studies when you are using their network and IP address. If you can hide IP addresses you can get around these types of limitations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Sometimes, your own government could even be blocking certain websites and services, whether out of a misguided desire to keep their citizens pure of heart or simply to keep them from information that would allow them to realize what\u2019s really going on inside their own borders.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n In the age of digital era, everything is connected. Even if you are not giving out your mobile IP address geolocation, your home devices will give an even worse type of information, your place of residence.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n And it is a misconception that some\u00a0serious hacking skills<\/a>\u00a0are needed to find you this way. You don\u2019t need to hack into the mainframe and disable the algorithms to use an IP location lookup tool online and match it to the twelve numbers you have collected from your website.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This small breach could create a whole set of problems. From identity thieves using the data, they get to steal your identity and drain your bank accounts, or max your credit cards, to serious data collectors that will resell your info to much more sinister parties. Make sure to you have encrypted your most sensitive data when it resides in your PC <\/a>or Mobile <\/a>as well during data exchange over network<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Even with all the governments, corporations, and all types of crime syndicates in the world, a much more pressing issue are the private photos of your child being sold to pedophiles over the unindexed pages of the dark web.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The easiest way to block someone from a platform or service is to block their IP address. Additionally, it is not illegal of a private company to ban anyone for whichever reason.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This may not have been an issue just a couple of years ago when most bans were for actual online harassment and dissemination of some truly obscene materials. But on today\u2019s internet, you can be banned for a wide variety of reasons.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Politics, religion, sexuality, race, gender, or place of residence -all can be a basis for a permanent ban.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Additionally, if you are a publisher or a content creator of any sort, twitter mobs can be made and sent to your home, because you have left your real IP address online and they now have your IP address location.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Certain governments monitor and censor the online activities of their citizens. This data may be used against you in an attempt to prove anti-government sentiments and lead to criminal charges or worse. A way around this practice is to hide IP addresses whenever you go online.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n There are restrictions enforced in many geographic locations regarding the streaming or downloading services that you can access.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Content restrictions will be made on your IP address for a variety of reasons, this includes much more than just TV shows, with whole subjects being banned due to religious, political, or other reasons in many countries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n In some cases, this is due to the enforcement of copyright laws that are intended to prevent you from accessing a site that provides torrents with which to download media content.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n If you are living in the European Union or the United States, these restrictions will usually be due to licenses and intellectual property rights. For instance, if you are living in the US and want to see the new season from a BBC show, you will need to\u00a0change your IP address\u00a0with a VPN to change your location, as it will be unavailable for a whole year in the States.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Hiding your IP address can get you around these blockades and allow you to access any site on the Internet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Just as your ISP, search engines, and governments can follow you around by using your IP address, so can hackers. These evil entities may not just want to monitor your movements and may be able to learn your identity and location through the IP address. This opens you up to potential malware and other types of digital attacks.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n If a hacker knows your IP address, they will know your location. With this info, they can make a VOIP call from your area to your local ISP representative and fool some bored customer service rep to give out your name and home address. It\u2019s all downhill from there.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt normal traffic of a targeted server, service or network by overwhelming the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a flood of Internet traffic. DDoS attacks achieve effectiveness by utilizing multiple compromised computer systems as sources of attack traffic. From a high level, a DDoS attack is like a traffic jam clogging up with highway, preventing regular traffic from arriving at its desired destination<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This DDoS attack technique has been used mostly to wage attacks on high-profile websites run by online merchants and banks. They will apply this method to cause the internet connection of the victim to slow to a crawl or shut down completely. The user is no longer be able to access websites, stream video, stay connected to gaming servers or perform any other online activity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Free WiFi is everywhere these days and can be very attractive to users on the go or individuals who might not have their own WiFi network at home. While it sounds great, using\u00a0free WiFi\u00a0without hiding your IP address can be a recipe for disaster. Free and unsecured WiFi networks are notorious for enabling hackers to compromise the data of unsuspecting users. You don\u2019t want them to see your real IP address and perhaps use it against you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n You have different options when it comes to hiding your IP address. Below are the most frequently used but that comes with feature additional security risks.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Using a V<\/strong>irtual\u00a0P<\/strong>rivate\u00a0N<\/strong>etwork or a VPN<\/a> \u00a0is most reliable and convenient way available today for hide your real IP address. It is one of the most popular methods of maintaining your online privacy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n A VPN is a software service that encrypts all of the data sent to and from the internet and routes it through a VPN server in another location. In other words, the VPN creates an encrypted tunnel<\/a> between you and the VPN service’s server.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Your computer or device connects to one of the VPN service\u2019s servers located throughout the world and then uses its IP address rather than your own. This effectively hides your IP address so websites and online apps you visit only see the server\u2019s IP address and not your own.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n While an observer may be able to detect that you are connected to a VPN server, they will not be able to see the information passing through the tunnel since its encrypted<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n When you connect to a VPN server located in another country, your connection is assigned an IP address identifying it as being located in that country. This convinces Netflix, Hulu, gaming servers and other providers that you\u2019re located in a licensed area, and they allow you to access the content.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Takeaway:<\/strong> VPNs are best and most widely used method to hide IP address, all your online traffic is encrypted so data transmission is secure.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Using a proxy server is similar in ways to a VPN but has some very important differences. A proxy server is a computer or an application that acts as a middleman (or a \u201cproxy\u201d) for requests your connected devices make to the internet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n It will allow you to stream or view websites that may be geo-blocked. After connecting to the proxy server, you are using its IP address to connect to websites.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n In the past, proxy servers were mainly used as a means of connecting multiple users to the internet in cases where a direct connection might not have been feasible. This was widely the case in the early, \u201cdial-up\u201d days of the internet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n In modern times, proxy servers are a way for a user to keep their identity and their original IP address undercover.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Your data is not encrypted and full address spoofing is not provided, so you can still potentially be monitored by your ISP or government.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n While proxy servers work quite well and are, in many cases,\u00a0less expensive than VPN services, they do not provide the encrypted connection protection a VPN does, leaving your activities open to prying eyes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Pros: <\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Takeaway:<\/strong> Using a proxy server is potentially risk, you may consider managed proxy providers if you still wanted to use as they should have additional security.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The Tor browser is a software application that lets you use the Tor network to hide your IP and browse anonymously. It is a freeware, open-source program and can be run on many different operating systems.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The Tor Browser is free and sends your browser activity through a network of relays\u00a0run by thousands of volunteers, which hides your actual IP address and make it difficult to impossible to track your online travels back to your IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n When you connect to Tor, your internet traffic is encrypted and routed through a random sequence of these volunteer \u201cnodes,\u201d which are sort of like proxy servers. Websites can only see the IP address of the last server in the sequence, called the exit node.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Each time you visit a website, the sequence of nodes changes. This makes it practically impossible to trace activity back to the original IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n While the Tor Browser is an efficient way to safely browse the internet, be advised that your browsing activities will be slowed down by quite a bit due to the extra leaps around the web that your browsing traffic is making.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Takeaway:<\/strong> Since Tor uses a network of distributed relays, the performance of Tor Browser is much slower than the native browsers, not suitable for torrenting or streaming<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Alternatively, you may use public Wi-Fi services offered by a coffee shop, hotel or any public locations to connect your device, you will temporarily hide your usual IP address. Since you’ll be using their network’s IP address for as long as you’re online.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n However, if you don’t use a\u00a0VPN when you use an open public hotspot, you are opening yourself up to monitoring by any other user who is connected to that hotspot. In addition, that Wi-Fi hotspot is connected to the internet via an ISP, posing further monitoring issues.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Takeaway:<\/strong> We do not recommend using a public Wi-Fi hotspot<\/a> to \u201chide\u201d your real IP address. While using a public Wi-Fi hotspot offer you a slight amount of anonymity, but it poses valid security concerns.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Normally changing the networks will change your assigned IP address since the address is assigned by the router when you access the network. If you have a mobile device with a data plan you can use your own\u00a0wireless hotspot\u00a0instead of your usual means of connecting. This will hide your true IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n However, your data is not encrypted and often you experience slow connection speeds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n No. It\u2019s not possible to hide your IP address from your ISP. Since your ISP provides you the internet service and therefore an IP address is must and without an IP address, you can\u2019t connect to the internet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n VPNs and Proxies don\u2019t literally replace your existing IP address. They just mask your IP address with one of their own so that other computers and servers on the internet can\u2019t see yours. But your real IP address is still there, communicating through the proxy or VPN server as a mediator.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n You may ask it and it shouldn\u2019t be too hard for your ISP to assign a different IP address for you. But don\u2019t expect it to stay the same forever. Because IP addresses are constantly being recycled in order to preserve the limited number of available IP addresses, your IP address will probably change once in a while. These are called\u00a0dynamic\u00a0IP addresses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n You could request a\u00a0static\u00a0IP address that never changes, but there might be an application process and an extra fee.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This isn\u2019t guaranteed to work, but you can often get a new IP address by unplugging your internet modem and plugging it back in again. When you lose the connection to your ISP, your old IP address will get recycled. When you re-establish a connection, you\u2019ll be assigned a new IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The longer you leave the modem unplugged, the more likely this tactic will work. Try leaving it unplugged overnight if you have to.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Your ISP must use dynamic IP addresses for this to work.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n A NAT firewall doesn\u2019t hide your public IP address, but your private IP address. If you use a wireless router to connect to the internet, it\u2019s likely that you\u2019re behind a\u00a0NAT firewall<\/a>. In simplest terms, a NAT firewall allows multiple devices on the same network to use the same public IP address but unique private IP addresses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Network Address Translation (NAT) forwards requests and data from the private IP addresses of individual devices to their online destination under the router\u2019s public IP address.<\/p>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n You can use one of the above method to hide your IP address on your android phone. I would recommend to use either a VPN service or Tor browser if it’s for safe browsing or file sharing but make sure your files are encrypted<\/a> before sharing it online.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n Using a VPN is best and most convenient way but a reliable VPN service comes with a minimum monthly fee. There are few VPN service providers who can offer you VPN service for free but it features security risks.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n Alternatively, you may use a proxy server but your traffic is not encrypted and it’s possible to compromise your security. If you’re looking additional security for your basic browsing, you may use the Tor browser it will do a good job.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n If you navigate on the Internet with your IP address, your privacy and sensitive information about you can be monitored. With an IP address, your\u00a0location, your ISP and your privacy or security can be breached.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n There are full of suspicious people on the Internet, and you need to protect your identity and your most sensitive data from prying eyes.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n That\u2019s why we developed Data Protection Apps for Windows<\/a>, macOS<\/a>, Android<\/a> and even USB sticks<\/a>. With just one click or drag and drop, you can easily protect your most important data and become anonymous online.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n In this article, we have shared the various ways users can keep their real IP address undercover, thereby protecting their online activities from being monitored by outsiders.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n The issue of how to hide my IP address can be critical to you depending on your geographic location and the types of activity you engage in when online. Hiding your IP address protects your privacy and inhibits the ability of any <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n Of all of the methods we\u2019ve taken a look at, a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is the best way to protect all of your online activities from being observed and your personal and business-related information from being stolen.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\nHow Public IP Address and Private IP Address Works<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
