[edit] Expansion

There is plenty of material for expansion in the two cited references. I am busy with other pages now, so please be WP:BOLD. Dhaluza 18:48, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

I saw something in an ad about anonymizer software and wanted to see what it was, I went to the anonymizer INC website and my internet security said that this site put my computer at risk for being hacked, and proxy avoidence, not sure what the second one is but the first one is obvious, mabey this should be mentioned.

[edit] Trademark

Anonymizer is an internationally registered trademark of Anonymizer Inc. It should not be used in this generic sense any more than "Xerox" should be generic for "photocopy".

Good luck with that. But out of curiosity, what would be your suggested alternative? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fhapgood (talk • contribs) 16:08, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

It is not so much luck as a legal issue. This is a clear violation of trademark. There are plenty of other terms including "privacy enhancing technology", "anonymity system", "anonymous proxy", "anonymous network", etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LanceCottrell (talk • contribs) 16:00, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
