Hello,

I'm still wondering the same question, shouldn't proxy servers and sites be illegal? Like; it masks your IP and that's how most fraud is acted on. I still don't get it...

Privacy. Thats like writing a book under a pseudo name. If I want to surf a website secretly or get past a firewall, proxies work great. Just because the technology can be used for bad, doesn't mean it always is. I would say the majority of proxy use is high school kids sneaking past school firewalls.

Yup Privacy is d main thing that matters

quote found from d net


Your right to anonymity
Amendments 9 and 10 of The United States Bill Of Rights protect the right to be free of unwarranted and unwanted government intrusion into one's personal and private affairs, papers, and possessions. Article 12 of The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights states, "No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks."

Despite some charges to the contrary, anonymous Web surfing is not the sole province of criminals. Anonymity also serves whistle blowers, free speech advocates, and people just looking for personal privacy online. Privacy is not a crime and anonymity is not morally ambiguous or wrong, it is your right.

but has stated above it could also be bad like spamming a server like that

If they become illegal, that's a majority of my income down the drain. So for that reason; they shouldn't be.
