Actually, the speed thing is something I'm concerned with. Any chance you could do a benchmark speed test at www.dslreports.com with the proxy/and again without? I would be very interested in the speed loss vs. cost/privacy. Remember to shut down Kazaa and those filesharing progies to get an accurate test.

so what happens when the riaa or the mpaa asks these people for your details. they will be obliged to give them your details since they do not wanna get in shit.
you are a paying customer and they will have all your detials no need to contact any isp's now is there.
good idea in theory but the fact you have to pay for the account makes it no longer anon.

wrong again bud..
maybe you didn't read the last part of my first post...
they've made it their mission to protect us, if they fail to do that then they are really fucking their own business.
Proxies are only as good as their operators. and I believe the guys at anonx are on our side
as for payments they dont know shit about me since i paid through paypal.
all i am required is a username/password to use their service

and you really believe they keep no records.
what happens when some script kiddie launches a dos attack against a site using this service. guess what they are liable not the source of the attack.
they keep records of everything that goes through there servers no matter what they say.
the fact that you pay fot this service means they can track you down. the only really anon way of surfing is to go wardriving and use other peeps wireless networks.

if you are so skeptical why dont you use something else?
i understand it pays to be paranoid but if you do that all the time you'll never get to p2p with your internet
now i've put my trust in the hands of this company and I believe it's in their best interest for them to hold up their end of the bargain.
it's better than getting on bt with NOTHING!!!
last time i did that i got a notice from my isp

well i am still testing this service. i'll try sharing some new release movies with this service and see if i get another notice
but then that's rare, in my 4 months of file sharing this is the first time i've gotten a notice.
I dont believe p2p clients can really protect you, cuz there are ways to get ur ip. dont ask why but there are just ppl who can.
however if you mask ur ip at the source then it doesn't really matter what p2p u use you will be protected...
you forgot my last quote
and it's even lamer than pirating on the internet
kiss my ass

First off I ran a test with JBR in an IRC channel and on BT and both only showed me his proxy, so this does work and seems well woth the $5.95 per month for a little sanity.
Now lets say they keep logs and the AA jumps on BT and sees like 40 people sharing the latest movie and that 38. IP is in there, then what. All they ever do is send a letter to the ISP right now. As far as movies go they have yet to to ask for you info that I know of. So that means some company wherever gets a letter that they throw away.
Lets say they ask for your info, its possible. Lets add to that they have a 90 day log at that company, which is quite long, even my ISP only logs 90 days and some only log 7 days such as newservers in case of spam. Now the AA requests by supenoa your information from a company in another counry, which is already highly unlikely and not worth the time, and they respond that they don't know or keep logs then I imagine anyone would give up since it is just simply to much fkin work at that point and there are easier people to catch and pester. Though if they continue to pursue it by that time any logs that may exsist would be gone. Also as far as I know at the moment there are no regulations requiring that proxy servers keep logs to begin with, Though that may change here in the US anyway, and it is not in this companys best interest to fk their own customers.
This may be a new wave and I for one intend on signing up this weekend, after all were only talking about $5.95 per month. Only thing I still find puzzling is how can they manage this so cheap...
