Different ways to hide your IP address

Some "proxy" services offer the security advantage of hiding your IP address without a VPN. You should be very careful when sending traffic to an anonymous proxy service, especially if it advertises itself as a "free proxy".

Free proxies may hide your IP address for free, but they may also profit from your traffic through trackers, advertising and other malware.

Proxies also often lack the security benefits and other features of premium VPN services. See the results you get by using ExpressVPN with a free proxy to hide your IP address.
