Hello, everyone. Today, we will continue talking about proxy servers and discuss how criminals protect themselves, what they choose, why they use proxies, why sometimes they do not use proxies, how to choose a country for a proxy for you and for cybercriminals. I will start by saying that most of the things I will show should not be done or used to avoid committing crimes. Use everything legally, do not go against the law, it's all bad for you, it will end badly, and we simply do not recommend it. We do not support it. I am just saying that most things about cybercriminals here will be like information. If you are in the field of cybersecurity, this information will be useful for you. You should use it in a good way, not in a bad way, do not do anything illegal. Okay. With this disclaimer said, let's start talking about how countries for proxies are chosen, and in what field.

Let's look at the first choice of proxy country and legal jurisdiction. And this may, of course, be for you as an example. I will say right away that when I used a VPN before, it was mainly needed to change the country once a month, for example, because my content was blocked, or I entered a site many times with the wrong login password and got blocked. Until I write to the admin that it's me, everything is fine. In the meantime, I use VPN to still access the service I want. It's normal to use it this way, there are no problems here, and proxies in these situations are better. There are two versions of reducing latency, that is, often much slower than proxy services. You probably even saw if you used some, I won't say names, but most of the new ones I know of somehow still log everything. You should trust a proxy that you know of instead of using a free proxy. Yes, please don't find and use free CTP proxies there. Proxy CH or.

OpenVPN. By the way, when I say OpenVPN, I mean the program OpenVPN. OpenVPN supports proxy servers. You can configure a proxy configuration in the OpenVPN program. OpenVPN does not mean a VPN service that you can buy or rent for 2 dollars a month; these are different things. The OpenVPN program supports proxy servers as well. You know this too because if you see someone using OpenVPN, there's no need to say, Oh, you're using a VPN and not a proxy. No, a proxy server can be configured, yes. So, it will work in the OpenVPN program, which is an open-source program. Look, don't be surprised by this. Okay, now, reducing latency, as I said, everything will be faster if you have a trusted and fast proxy that matches the online service. When people often say, Buy this VPN to unblock netfx from your country and watch programs from another country, it doesn't quite work that way. Most major companies already know almost all the IP addresses that VPNs provide. Yes, even if they change, I don't know every time I.

I turned on a VPN, went to some, for example, Google, YouTube, and there it says that there is strange traffic from my IP address because of the CAPTCHA. They know that I am using a VPN, which is not very good because I often get blocked. When I try to change the country on services, nothing changes. Even when I wanted to watch YouTube videos, it didn't always work. I had to click on many countries, and in the end, you can't fully trust such things. If your proxy is a trusted one, it doesn't ask for speed. It's the same as if there were no problems, and there won't be any problems. You will have access to the services you need if you use this proxy. Yes, anonymity and mixing are also very useful. I also want to talk about this. Maybe you've heard the phrase in English, Hiding in plain sight. Yes, or hiding in an open place completely, in obvious places. What does this mean? For example, if you choose a country like, let's give examples.

I will tell you, you chose South Africa for your proxy to use, I don't know specifically for the USA Network only. It may be strange because you are the only person from South Africa who does this. Something is not right, obviously. You stand out. It's clear who you are, and it's easy to deduce. If you chose a typical proxy, you don't want to think about anonymity. You chose Spain to use the service in Spain, like everyone does in Spain. It's obvious that you blended in with everyone, and it's no longer clear who you are. Obviously, you are someone else. You need to blend in, understand how to blend in with others. Let's talk about Tor. If Tor is banned in your country, please check the laws. The same example applies here. If you use Tor, they often say, Don't make a screenshot of your Tor, because you could get caught, or they could find out who you are. Let's think logically. All browsers can know who you are.

Screen parameters. For example, you have a 22-inch monitor. Yes, full. Well, it's 4K, they don't understand, but it's 16 by 9. Yes, there it's 16 by 10, 4 by 3. Yes, probably you understand these ratios, all browsers know this. Now, if you are the only person who has made your browser square and small to the side, you obviously become one percent of people who do this. Or if you are the only person with a 49-inch monitor, yes, gigantic, obviously you will ask who you are. But if you just blend in with people like regular people, most popular is 1920 by 1080, yes, 1080p, if you convert it, most people have it. If you act like most people, you will blend in with the audience again, so there is no need to think about browsers, there is no need to use a full screen, you should try to understand what is the most popular and use it. Next, I will talk about legal considerations and jurisdictional issues. And cybercriminals, don't do that again, I'm telling you.

Countries often use information security research as their proxies where there are weak laws against crimes because even if you have heard a lot of laws in your country, yes, maybe you have heard in America how everything is serious, some countries still don't take it seriously. Yes, cybercriminals can do whatever they want. Yes, it's difficult to catch them. If caught, they don't even know what to do with them. Yes, there are not very serious laws in countries like, for example, in America. Yes, there are laws, but not so serious, there are weak laws, cybercriminals choose such countries as number one, it's more profitable, it's more useful. Yes, the absence of extradition agreements is also very important for them, complex legal processes, the more complex everything is done as I said, where there are weak laws, there can be complex legal processes, that is, against some typical attacks. Yes, there is nothing serious, or someone is spamming, if someone tries.

Hack someone's, I don't know, server against this. If all complex legal processes are going on, it gives more and more time for criminals to hide and find another proxy. By the time they catch this proxy, it's already in another one, or they are in another, or in another, another place completely. Yes, in this situation, cybercriminals always choose such places. Well, there is evasion of regulation, it's worth explaining less regulation is better for cybercriminals, obviously. Often they even use extreme situations, but they are not just using proxies. They completely change the country from there to maximize hiding and change the country where there are weak laws and use a proxy in another country where the laws are weak. This is maximum. Yes, to hide, there is an exchange of information between countries. Alliance 14 Eyes. I don't think this is some hidden information. It's public information. So, you can probably Google it yourself. But here I have something that you may not have known. Yes, the Alliance 14 Eyes includes countries.

Those who exchange data on cyber threats, including IP addresses, contribute to collective defense and cyber monitoring, meaning here America, the UK, and Canada. If you have seen, by the way, now an example, I will also say this: when the FBI takes some kind of, some kind of cyber criminals, they found, it is written there, they copy and paste their HTML there, this site was hacked by the FBI. And it shows all the countries that were involved. Often, it is also mentioned that the USA and UK are always together, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, plus France, the Netherlands, Norway, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Sweden, possible participants. Also, Israel, Singapore, Israel not sure anymore, honestly, Singapore, Japan, and South Korea. So, know that if cybercriminals probably won't use Canadian proxies because if they are in Canada or use Canadian proxies, America can.

It's easy to find all the information, you can easily share it in real-time, so cybercriminals won't use it now. If you use it as just an ordinary person who is trying to be a little anonymous, then maybe it's better not to use it if you want complete anonymity. But these servers for anonymity are good as long as you don't do anything illegal. So when I was showing Spain, it was beneficial for me to show Spain because I'm still keeping myself anonymous and in real-time, if IP addresses change. I'm not doing anything illegal for someone to try to find me. Or if someone says something about England or America, I'm just trying to keep my personal anonymity. Well, and Spain works fast for me. Why not use a Spanish proxy and configure the proxy? If you saw how I used it with OpenVPN, I'll say it again, OpenVPN itself, like Soft, allows you to use proxy configuration, that is, in OpenVPN.

This is not a VPN program that you buy for $2 a month. The OpenVPN program allows you to use proxy servers, proxy settings, and you still connect to the internet through a proxy. So, know the difference between OpenVPN software and the VPN that you buy from a provider for, I don't know, $2 a month. Yes, know the difference. I will also say now, using this diagram, I can show you how you can use it to maximize your anonymity. So, for example, it would be illogical to open a proxy in the US, another in England, and chain them because they always exchange information. You always need to make sure that two points do not exchange information, especially when they go in sequence. For example, where you connect from, for instance, if you are in Russia, as an option. I can say here you can Google it or look it up yourself, there are many options here, especially if you use Up cybercom.

As an example, let me tell you that we see Japan here, but Brazil is not present. For instance, if you create a chain where you first connect from Russia to Japan, and then connect to Brazil, and then start browsing American websites, there shouldn't be many problems here. And you can also find all this information yourself. Yes, you can search by country and if, for example, Japan is not available, you can find another option. But Japan, of course, is available to us. So, Russia and Japan do not have such relationships that they would transmit information correctly. You connected to Japan and Brazil as well. If I'm not mistaken, I can show Brazil now. Brazil should also be available to us. And as for Brazilian Telecom, yes, it is also available. Since it is not directly stated in this alliance 14 Eyes, you can achieve good anonymity through this chain. There are even better options here. Yes, if we search by ourselves, let's look at Singapore next.

Singapore has two residential proxies, but Singapore is not included here. The first one is Singapore. The second one can be seen in countries that can also be googled. You can see in general how it works. When I was looking, for example, just searching, it didn't seem like Singapore and Moldova have particularly strong relations, among others, and it's not evident that Moldova and Singapore are somehow linked in this alliance. So, if you make a chain connecting Singapore to Moldova, and then look at all the countries Moldova is connected to, it should be quite safe and anonymous for you. Of course, you can increase the chains just for you. But the more chains, the slightly slower it will be. I wouldn't recommend going over three, but you can test it for yourself. Because OpenVPN is a good program, I'll remind you again about proxy chains and anonymity. Yes, that's it.

Multilevel protection is very important. If you are using proxies, as you know, you can also create chains of proxies, which is much easier to do. Chains of proxies, first, second, third - the more you create, the network performance decreases. There is no need to create 15 proxy chains. Anonymity increases to a million, but it is still possible to be found sooner or later if someone wants to, cybercriminals, I mean, to find or understand if you are anonymous or not. Even if you are not a cybercriminal, secondly, it doesn't make sense because by the time one site opens, a day will have passed. Usually, three is the maximum that people use. And three chains, well, if there is Tor plus a proxy, it's already four chains. It gets slower, but still, if you choose the right proxy, you will hardly notice the difference in speed. Tor will work just like regular Tor. That's why proxy chains provide anonymity.

Proxy chains always help. I recommend using them if you want to be as anonymous as possible, and of course, if you are not a cybercriminal. I hope that just using Tor to stay anonymous plus having a proxy locally enabled or on a virtual machine doesn't matter. You mask yourself very well. It's not 100%, it's a myth. There is no 100% guarantee. If I have a proxy, no one else can access it. There is no such thing. Anyway, sooner or later, if someone wants to decrypt it, especially if it's an Exit from Tor, there are some agents or someone monitoring what's happening. You may realize it later, but still, it's a good method to be anonymous. I think that's all. I hope you liked the information, and we will make more videos about proxies. So, see you next time, and thank you. Goodbye.
