    Easiest Way to Spoof my IP Address?

    Just want a simple way to spoof my IP address from my home PC. So that sites I use cannot log my correct IP address?

    What is the easiest way?

    Cheers

    That would be Tor Browser.

        Tor is pretty good and you can specify your exit node so you can config the country you want to appear being in.

          Expatshield?
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            You're answering a different question. I don't think Tor requires setting up an account or to have you fiddle around with you network settings like all windows users know, is a nightmare.

                Don't you mean "simple way to hide my IP address" ?

                I thought spoofing is to pretend you're on a given IP address that you want to impersonate. Not quite the same.

                    Yeah, he's looking for a VPN service or equivalent. As you say, spoofing an IP address is a whole different ballgame.

                    OP, this needs context to answer sensibly. Tor if you're trying to avoid being traced, VPN to get around geolocation or something simple liked unblock.us for Netflix and others.
