Servers who disguise your IP numbers - like Torservers and many others. They make it look as though your posts/Tweets/You Tube/Facebook comments come from Bosnia or New Zealand or Manchester when they are not. Often used for accessing places like BBC iPlayer that block outside the UK. They used to conceal your true IP but don't anymore. New technology moves so fast. That's how they can now trace and prosecute people like the above spammers.
