If you want to go through these without identifying yourself you need a 'hacker' etc etc.

You mean like in China?

Kind of.
The 'Nex' as I've called it somewhat regulated in Europe (gateway passages mostly), quite regulated in the Middle-East and the Far East.
In the America's there's hardly any regulation.

But not as heavy on clamp-downs as in these insane times we now live in.

I do believe that in China proxy-use is a way they try and get around the G. Firewall...
