Here’s an interesting find.

Yesterday I blogged about how to hide your IP address and today I caught up with one of the many blogs (EFF in this case) I follow who posted about “encrypting the web”.

In short, it’s a plugin for Firefox released by the Tor Project and EFF that encrypts all your search requests and attempts to encrypt all standard web browsing. Read all about it here.

It’s still in beta but it’s a start.

I say grab it now.

N.B. it doesn’t hide your IP or stop search engines from logging but it does stop ‘in the open‘ intercepts.
