Jebo you're absolutely right proxies don't make you 100% untraceble. But lets say you're bouncing through a proxy in Sudan, Iran, and Japan(rhyming not intentional) simultaneously. And you're right I don't intend to use proxies with a web browser. None the less the fact that I have to ask how to chain proxies in Linux points out that I am not in the position to do anything "highly" illegal and get away with it. I realize this doesn't stop some people, but I'm a freedom loving individual. =)
