If I was to explain, you wouldn't understand. Ask your IT guru's that always provide you with incorrect analysis.
You are probably right, but Setanta might get some benefit from your explanation, as might others.
Aussie,
Describing how they do it provides stupid people with information. The rules of security are, don't share how your security works. The rules for tracking are, don't share how it is done.
Experts like Anonymous and organized crime stay one step ahead of the authorities and the technology so they have to make a mistake generally to be caught or they leave a trail, like a money trail. That's why Bitcoin took off.
For the average punter, using anonymizing sites or software is not enough not to be tracked but it is much more effort and you have to be worth their while.
Plus what I know is not complete as the techniques and technology improve everyday.
So I will not provide any insight as it may make it just that little bit more difficult for the authorities to catch scumbags that will use this information to avoid or make detection/tracking more difficult for them.
This is why I don't bother with masking my IP, if they want you, they will get you. I use VPNs only to trick some software/services to think I am in a different country to bypass restrictions (like Netflix ...etc)
Google it aussie or join Anonymous. They may not let you in....
