These days it’s hard to go anywhere or do anything without someone watching you and here on the internet is no different.
When you visit a webpage it’s possible for that page to ’see’ where you came from. For example, before visiting this page you were looking at www.bootylover.gov.us/belinda13.jpg (shame on you!)
EDIT: Our solicitors have asked us, for the sake of any visitor without a sense of humour, that the above web link is in fact totally made up and it was just a joke… haha 
Now then, on to the point of this post - it’s now possible to hide where you came from by using this handy little website…
anonym.to is a free and easy way to block the referrer when visiting websites. It works with every browser and all you do is add http://anonym.to/? in front of every http:// link. Obviously you’d only do this if the webpage you wanted to view wasn’t from the website you were currently on.
So for example if you didn’t want us to see where you came from you would use the url http://anonym.to/?http://www.devinebydesign.co.uk/ … simple eh?
