00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:05,940
Hi, everyone, welcome to the section, as we all know that in this session we are going to talk about

2
00:00:05,940 --> 00:00:06,830
anonymity.

3
00:00:07,350 --> 00:00:13,950
So before going into it, first list discussed at high level, some of the visible activities on the

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:15,720
Internet are being tracked.

5
00:00:16,660 --> 00:00:22,580
So we won't go into all the parking meters or into too much details about any one matter.

6
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:31,720
So first, your IP address identifies you as you traverse the Internet, then data packet from your

7
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:38,620
machine is generally tagged with your IP address, making your activities easy to track.

8
00:00:39,390 --> 00:00:46,960
Then second, Google and other email services will read your email address and emails and looking for

9
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,190
keywords to more efficiently serve you ads.

10
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:57,430
As we all know that everyone is doing this, although there are many more sophisticated matters that

11
00:00:57,430 --> 00:01:00,230
are far more time and resource intensive.

12
00:01:00,370 --> 00:01:03,730
These are the ones we try to prevent in this section.

13
00:01:04,330 --> 00:01:10,280
So now let's start by taking a look at how IP addresses give us away on the Internet.

14
00:01:10,690 --> 00:01:17,170
So when you send a packet of data across the Internet, it contains the IP addresses of the source and

15
00:01:17,170 --> 00:01:18,920
destination for the data.

16
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:24,630
In this way, the packet knows where it is going and where to return the response.

17
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:32,410
So each packet hops through multiple Internet routers until it finds the destination and then goes back

18
00:01:32,410 --> 00:01:33,040
to the sender.

19
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,760
So for the general Internet surfing, each hop is Rotel.

20
00:01:37,060 --> 00:01:39,820
The packet passes through to get its destination.

21
00:01:41,050 --> 00:01:49,810
Then there can be as many as 30 or we can say 20 to 30 between the senders and destination, but usually

22
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:55,120
any packet will find its way to the destination in fewer than 15 hops.

23
00:01:56,060 --> 00:02:03,110
So as the package traverses the Internet, anyone intercepting the packets can see who send it, where

24
00:02:03,110 --> 00:02:05,550
it has been and where it is going.

25
00:02:06,290 --> 00:02:13,150
So this is one way a website can tell who you are and when arrive and log you in automatically.

26
00:02:13,460 --> 00:02:19,010
And it's also how someone can track where you have been on the Internet.

27
00:02:19,460 --> 00:02:24,030
So this is how basically the tracking works on the Internet.

28
00:02:24,620 --> 00:02:29,560
So from the next election onwards, we are going to learn how we can break this mechanism.
