If there is truly a gray zone in the struggle between online good and evil, anonymous proxy servers live there.
Organizations typically use proxy servers to forward website, file and other requests to other servers. Anonymous proxy servers are meant to hide the identity of the requestor.
Some security experts say the latter is only necessary if someone wants to mask malicious activity, including Sunil James, senior product manager at Amazon Web Services and formerly director of vulnerability research at iDEFENSE Inc.

Good Article
A good article on the subject of Anonymous proxies but I think an important point not raised is simply the fact of free speech. Anonymous proxies allow bloggers across the world to speak against oppresive regimes, people to access content which has been 'banned' - for instance many social networking sites like Youtube, Facebook and even Wordpress are banned in a surprisingly large number of places.
Of course they can be used for ill purposes but let's face it what can't - you might as well just ban the internet because it has nasty people on it.

Where Google Chrome security fails: the password I heard mention that the Chrome OS will have some sort of encryption available a la bitlocker. If it's possible to encrypt personal data using another password or key, then it may have potential for very secure data.... And Ubuntu has an 'encrypt home directory' option, perhaps google should follow suit.
