“Sit on the Internet” or “surf the Internet”?

Hello, I’ve encountered the following problem: my mother and most of the older generation do not “sit” on the Internet, but “go” to the Internet. In my opinion, the first option is correct, but I have not found confirmation of this. Tell me, please, with what all the same verb to use the word “Internet” in this case. nine0005

internet

I can surf the Internet (Wow, I spent three hours on the Internet!), I can surf (i.e. go from page to page without a special purpose: I looked at the news of the day, on Odnoklassniki I checked messages and news from friends, new questions and answers on the forum “Russian language”, etc.), I can surf the entire Internet (hyperbole, of course) in search of urgently needed information. And I say this to my son – everything, I finished with household chores, went to the computer (it can be the Internet, and just work with documents, but I don’t say “I went to the Internet”). Those. each verb has its own shade of meaning, here I agree with Serge. What is the right way then? Time will tell, dictionaries will prompt – later . ..

My
mom sometimes even uses “sit at the computer”, but for me it’s
usage is not correct. Surfing the Internet I have been hearing for 15 years, since
the moment of my acquaintance with the computer and the Network, so what is
the expression doesn’t bother me. On the Internet, you can sit , you can use it
crawl , there you can hang and you can enter (without a prefix, go to
Internet(e) , never heard of).

With the advent of the Internet, and then social networks, the word “sitting” has taken on an additional meaning: to spend time on the Internet. Apparently influenced by this value: SIT 3.
Be in a place in any purposes (usually for a long time). S. is away. S. in ambush. S. with friends in a cafe, in a restaurant
(spend your time like this).
Surfing the Internet means being on the Internet for a long time, which cannot be said about “using” where there is no additional connotation. nine0005

The Internet is accessed. You can sit there, wander, climb, hang out, well, but for someone the word is more common – to walk. Everything is possible on the Internet!

The verb “to walk” refers to a regularly repeated action: to go to work, to school, to the store, to training.

We access and exit the Internet, for example:

Problem: I cannot access the Internet via wi-fi. Nine Reasons to Get Off the Internet Immediately.

But it is also possible to surf the Internet, if we are talking about constant use of the Internet, for example:

Mom doesn’t tell me to use the Internet.
Russians will go online more often.
Why do you go online?
Today, people “go” to the Internet to find solutions to their problems and learn how to apply relevant knowledge.
Does anyone access the Internet from a mobile phone?
Do you really have to use your passport to go online?

Perhaps the expression “go to the Internet” is colloquial, but in bookish speech you should use quotation marks.

I would not take any of the options you suggested, but would write: “use the Internet” or “use the Internet”.

How to become anonymous on the Internet

January 27, 2014

Advice

Technologies

The era of permissiveness and anarchy in the network is rapidly coming to an end. The new orders must be met prepared and armed.

All recent years have passed in the trend of ever-increasing state control over its citizens. This process is especially successful on the Internet, to which Snowden’s revelations so successfully opened our eyes. If we consider that not only the United States is doing this, but all countries, to one degree or another, the picture is even more depressing. nine0005

In light of these developments, it is only natural for citizens to want to keep their sensitive data safe and to loosen control over their private lives. One of the measures for this is to counteract their identification on the network, that is, to ensure anonymity. You will learn how to do this in this article.

First of all, it is worth dwelling on the question, why is anonymity needed in the network at all?

Yes, indeed, anonymity is a personal choice for everyone, and many do not need it, and some, for example, public figures, simply cannot afford it because of the nature of their activities. For other people, it may be urgently needed, for security reasons, for the implementation of their social, civil or political activities. In addition to these polar opinions, there is a vast majority of users who simply do not like being spied on. nine0005

Is it possible to be anonymous online?

I want to upset you right away – complete anonymity in the network is practically unattainable. Each computer has its own ip-address, by which you can identify the owner and his actions. Yes, the identification process can be significantly complicated, but completely avoided, without special technical means that are inaccessible to mere mortals, it is almost impossible. Keep this in mind.

However, this does not mean that we should give up. The situation is similar to protection from thieves. Although there is no lock that would be impossible to open, it is in our power to make this process so complicated and lengthy that not a single burglar, without urgent need, will undertake it. Let’s see what we can do. nine0005

Organizational measures

1. Get yourself another account

Today, e-mail has become the universal identity of an online user. Therefore, first of all, you should take care of the second (third, fourth) email address. It can be as simple as an additional Gmail account, or one of the special mail services described in this article. After that, register new accounts on social networks and other necessary services on it. Never mix your public and private profile. nine0005

2. Do not use domestic services

I have nothing against our search, mail, social sites, in many ways they are even better. They are worse only in that, if necessary, interested people or structures can quite easily scratch out the information they need about you. Therefore, do not use the services of the country in which you live.

3. Change the place of connection

If you want to make the work of potential stalkers even more difficult, then do not sit at home, but take a walk around the neighborhood. A careful and thoughtful search will tell you dozens of available cafes, computer clubs, libraries from which you can use the Internet without risking exposing your real and network address. nine0005

Software methods

1. Proxy servers

Quite simply, a proxy is a service or program that acts as an intermediary between you and the site you request. It turns out that all your surfing requests will be addressed to only one server, and it will already send them where necessary.

2. VPN

Virtual Private Network – these are several technologies and methods that allow you to create a special encrypted and untrackable channel between the user and the Internet. This allows you to hide your real IP address and become anonymous, as well as encrypt your traffic. Within the framework of this article, we will not dwell on deciphering the features of the operation of different VPN protocols, we will only note that this method, in general, is quite reliable and easy to use. nine0005

3. TOR

TOR is a network of routers and software designed specifically to keep users anonymous. Roughly speaking, when using this technology, your request to the site and the response from it go through such a tortuous and complex path through a chain of proxy servers that it is almost impossible to figure out the client. Rumors about the unreliability of TOR technology are now actively circulating, but there is no solid evidence for this and, quite possibly, these rumors are launched by interested government organizations. nine0005

The easiest way to start using this technology is to download and install a special build of Firefox with all the necessary additional components, including NoScript, Torbutton and HTTPS Everywhere addons. This program is called Tor Browser Bundle, you can download it here.

Conclusion

This article lists far from all methods of maintaining anonymity on the network, but even they are quite enough to significantly complicate the task of your ill-wishers, persecutors or regulatory authorities.
