If a Anonymizer keeps records of  incoming and outgoing connections and the Anonymizer is physically in a  country where he undergoes a search warrant then there is a potential  risk that government officials can reverse engineer and identify all  users who use receives and how you use it. Most of anonymity state that  does not keep records, but currently no way to confirm that. However, if  the user used another anonymizer to connect to the Anonymizer exposed,  the user remains anonymous. This is sometimes called daisy-chaining.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, an unreliable network based Anonymizer is capable of man in  the middle attacks. The Anonymizer can read, inject, and modify the  content of the message that the user is sending and receiving. The  Anonymizer can intercept and record private unencrypted information such  as username and password credentials, credit card numbers, e-mails,  etc., which have been transported using the Anonymizer. To avoid this,  the content must be encrypted and credentials should be exchanged  outside of the Anonymizer.<\/p>\n<p>Because even Anonymizers trust, anonymity can not  filter out any malicious code that may reveal the identity of the user  who wishes to remain anonymous. See malware. Care must be taken to  prevent information leaks. For example, the anonymity of an HTTP  connection but not a DNS lookup can reveal the location of the viewer.<\/p>\n<p>Anonymizers also present a high-value target. Groups opposed to people  who want to remain anonymous target public anonymizers, especially as  they are often misused.<\/p>\n<p>freely available Anonymizers , open and above all HTTP proxies socks, usually  operated against the owner&#8217;s knowledge of the server, botnetworks and  other malicious programs are known to install the services.
