Additional Ideas for Browsing in Private
Many people use Safari because that’s the browser that comes with every Macintosh. However, consider using other browsers such as Chrome (http://www.google.com/chrome/), Opera (http://www.opera.com/), or Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/). If you use a different browser, anyone trying to track your Internet activities will have to know that you don’t rely on Safari.
If you need more security and privacy than Safari or a regular browser offers, consider using a proxy service, a virtual private network (VPN), or an anonymizing service like Tor (http://www.tor.com/) to truly hide your tracks.
