Or maybe none of us truth be told. In a move probably designed to appear to protect us all, Abraxas has aquired Anonymizer. Now you can browse the web with TOTAL confidence that the company that owns Anonymizer also services the CIA, NSA, FBI etc…nothing to see here sir, just move along!

Which Anonymizer software is right for you?
New Internet scams are born everyday so it’s critical to protect your identity and personal information on the Web. Anonymizer solutions empower you to control the amount of personal information that you share when visiting Web sites, sending emails, chatting, or posting to message boards. Not sure which one is best for you? Use the handy chart to find the solution to meet your specific needs.
To be perfectly honest, I never had a need for Anonymizer services, and always wondered who could possibly be that paranoid. However, all became clearer to me when I did find this story of a “former” Anonymizer (**NOTE** Please note comment from Lance Cottrell, Chief Scientist of Anonymizer.com below) client; I say “former” because the client is now in jail. After reading the story it appears that Anonymizer wasn’t so anonymous after all.
What's Behind Doerr Number One 
I would like to address a few points here. First off, if you do some more research you will find that the story you link to is about someone compromised by “an anonymizer” not “the anonymizer”. The author of the story is simply misusing our trademark and treating it as a generic term. We have never had a customer so compromised.
Second, privacy services are always a matter of trust. If we were ever to compromise that, our business would be all over. We are adding support for many other types of users, but will never compromise the security of our consumer users. I started this company out of a passion about privacy and free speech. I started out writing open source privacy software, and continue to be active in providing free privacy services for human rights applications.

Lance,
The story I linked to did state: “To download the online picture, he used the Anonymizer.com…”, if this is in error, and indeed NOT “Anonymizer.com” specifically as you state, I appologize for the error and will note your response in the story body.
