You’ve heard about VPNs, which can mask your activities online. But there will eventually come a time when you will have to hand over some personal information, like an e-mail address or a phone number, mostly just to buy that gift online. During those times, you might not want to give merchants your full credentials, especially for a one-time transaction with a not so trustworthy store. For those situations, Blur‘s brand of privacy protection might just be the right one for you. And now you can avail of it for the rest of your life!

Blur isn’t your usual kind of privacy protection service. Instead of actually masking your activity or IP, it offers the digital equivalent of disposable cellphones. It will, for example, let you use disposable emails that will simply be used for email confirmations, or limited-duration credit card numbers for very rare or even single transaction purchases. It can even given you a masked phone number that will automatically forward calls and messages to your real phone.

It may sound a bit shady, but sometimes merchants and businesses are even shadier. Blur will allow you to escape not the long arm of the law but the long reach of spam and hackers. Plus, it also acts as a password manager so you won’t have to remember those one-off credentials you just created.

Blur Premium Privacy Protection works on any platform on any modern browser and promises strong AES-256 encryption to protect your personal information. You can also use this on an unlimited number of devices. Unlike our VPN deals, however, Blur is available only in the US. But for $49.99, a sweet 74 percent discount from the original $195, you will be able to get Blur’s service for life.
