How to watch porn safely and privately?
More and more people consume porn on the internet, either to better explore their sexuality, have a good time or simply because they consider adult videos art. Watching porn on the internet is easy, but it's not always easy to maintain an intimate space in front of the screen. If you're one of the millions of people who consume porn on the internet and you want to watch porn safely and privately, without people knowing, just follow these tips.
How to clear your browsing history?
You may share your wifi signal with roommates, partners, family members or other people. You may even share your PC with other people. For all this and more, it's important to surf in incognito mode, also known as “safe mode” (it prevents the pages you visited from being saved) or at least deletes your browsing history. This way, other people won't be able to see that you visited porn sites or find browsing suggestions related to the pages you accessed.

How to delete cookies?
Cookies are used by websites to store information about you that, among other things, serves to show you personalized advertisements while you are browsing. If you watch porn on the Internet, you may later see erotic ads on other pages you visit. That's why it's important to use the incognito mode (yes, it also prevents cookies from being stored) and ultimately delete the cookies.
Which browsers you should use and what about privacy?
Even if your browsing history is spotless and you visit porn pages without cookies being stored, your data will still be exposed to the eyes of the big technology companies (Google, Facebook, etc.) and also to other corporations linked to the porn provider you visit. That's why, if you want to maximize your privacy when watching porn, it's recommended to use the Mozilla Firefox browser, because it doesn't track or save your web activity, and it also protects you from those who want to track you. On the other hand, if you want to search for pornography and don't want to share your information with Google and other search engines, you can use several alternatives, such as DuckDuckGo.
What about secure connection?
Even if you follow all the steps above and you think you are completely protected, there will always be one last factor: all the information that your PC or smartphone sends and receives through the wifi signal is exposed to your internet provider. If you want to take your privacy to an expert level, you should get a secure connection through a virtual private network, better known as a VPN – Virtual Private Network. This way, your data traffic will be encrypted and your internet provider will not be able to access what you receive and send. Find out more and download the Proton VPN or CyberGhost VPN for better protection.
How to avoid porn offenders?
In the world of cybercriminals, porn has become a common gateway for infecting PCs and mobile devices. A common practice is to send emails claiming that your camera has been hacked and you have been recorded in an intimate moment while watching porn. If this is your case: don't take the bait and always remember that the best thing to do is to report any malpractice or threat of this kind to the authorities. At the same time, keep in mind that it’s always better to visit trusted websites that respect the rights of those working in the porn industry and make sure you browse in an intimate and safe environment.
