how to anonymously surf using proxychain ?

what is proxychain?

in our day to day life the privacy is very important part. the person's information is very sensitive thing in today's world if our personal  information is on wrong hands, this information could result in various problems.data collected could be used to hack bank account, social account etc. due to this reason , people choose to be anonymous while using internet, using a proxy or a VPN . a proxy could be explained as a gateway between user computer and the destination webpage. normally while browsing through the website, your original ip is identified by the website,which could compromise your privacy. by the use of proxy chaining we bounce through a number of proxy servers and reach the destination . you can check by this way, if you check the ip without using the proxy chain then then it will display the ISP IP. but when you use proxy chain it will display the last used proxy server's IP in the chain.

user ------->proxy----------->webpage


it is important use two proxy servers. if  you can use more then that it will be  better four you.

user ------>proxy1------>proxy2------->proxy3------->proxy4----->webpage

are we really safe ?

proxy chaining is also used while carrying out an attack. it is a must if you are attempting to gain
unauthorized access to any server. even if you use proxy chaining you can't be 100% anonymous. you could be traced on the basis of each proxy used to establish a connection.it just makes it a lot harder to track you.
