From a forensics perspective a proxy doesn't do shit for your security, and to a certain degree it can diminish your security. Unless you're using an encrypted tunnel, the packets are still traveling through your ISP's gateway (so they can still interrogate the data being transmitted and received) and now you're adding an additional hop and more eyes looking at you. The only thing a proxy does for you is (sort of) hide your origination IP from the target website's logs but it should be noted that most proxies also forward the origination IP, and keep logs.
Your only real options are to:
* Setup a
secure encrypted tunnel which will secure the data being transmitted from your ISP and hide your real IP from the destination server
* Use a network like
Tor which will mask all your activity.
It should also be noted that prosecutions are difficult to administer (and warrants are difficult to obtain) if the only thing the enforcement agency has to work with are posts on a forum. They're going to need to establish a clandestine relationship with you and get you to incriminate yourself, usually by setting up a face to face meeting or having you mail them drugs.
As for pictures, all digital pictures contain meta-data in their header frames which contain attribute data about the camera used to take the picture, the shutter speeds, date taken, camera serial number, and in a lot of cases, the GPS coordinates where the picture was taken.
NEVER post a picture online until scrubbing the metadata frames with a program like
JHead (Copy jhead.exe into c:\windows\system32).
I use a batch file to scrub all photos at once after I resize them and move them to a folder called Resized.
Code:
@echo off
@echo Scrubbing metadata - GPS, Date Taken, Camera Serial #
jhead -purejpg c:\temp\Resized\*
