The typical approach that people take to do this is to use a tool that hides their IP address, and also hides which pages they visit.  This hides where they go on the web, but not what they actually do once they’re on a page.  There are a number of tools that allow you to hide your IP address, including Tor.  I am not very familiar with how to use them, but I will happily look it up and explain it to you if you’d like.

Can you tell me more about what Tor is?

Tor is a web browser developed to help people anonymously surf the internet.  People who are trying to keep their privacy on the internet have found it very useful.  Like I said, it is not perfectly private, but it helps a lot.

Do you know how much it costs to use Tor?
