Recently, you may have heard the word "Cheburnet". This is an informal name for tools and methods that help bypass restrictions on access to websites and services. In simple words, these are ways to get where you are not allowed to go by ordinary means.
It is important to understand: Cheburnet is not the same as privacy or anonymity. These are different tasks, and each requires its own tools. For example, if you just want to visit a blocked site, you need Cheburnet. If you want no one to know what you do online, that's about anonymity. And if you want no one to read the content of your messages, that's privacy.
Many Cheburnet tools, such as VPNs or special tunnels, encrypt your traffic. But this does not mean they automatically make you anonymous or protect your correspondence. Channel encryption is like a sealed envelope: the postman does not see what's inside, but he sees who the letter is to and from. Similarly, your ISP or those who manage network nodes can see where you connect, even if they don't see the content.
So if you need real privacy, use messengers with end-to-end encryption, such as Signal or Matrix. They are designed so that even the server cannot read your messages. And for anonymity, there are special networks, like Tor, that hide your tracks.
So don't confuse different tasks. If you only need access to a blocked site, use Cheburnet. If you need to protect your correspondence, use end-to-end encryption. And if you need complete anonymity, use specialized tools. And remember: one tool cannot solve all three tasks at once.
