There is nothing left at hideyou.us. The domain no longer resolves at all, and the archive's last working copy of the site is from August 2013.
What it was
The Internet Archive's first working copy of hideyou.us is from August 2013 and it holds 5 days of captures in total.
The page called itself "www.hideyou.us". The directory recorded it as a Glype install, which is what nearly all of these sites were.
Looking at all of us equally keeps an individual anonymous in the internet sites an individual pay a visit to and allows you to get around any kind of circle limits from your gov, business office or even school.
That is the site's own description, from the capture of 10 August 2013.
It was listed on workingproxysites.com, a directory of free web proxies, 13 years ago, and that listing counted 494 clicks through to it. The directory recorded it as United States.
When it stopped
The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 17 August 2013 and the archive kept visiting until 17 December 2014.
What the name does today
We checked hideyou.us on 10 September 2026 from our own server. The name does not resolve: there is no address behind it, so nothing can be served from it.
Where to go from here
A list with a visible last-checked time beats a remembered domain. Ours re-verifies every few minutes; the checker tests a single address if you would rather bring your own.
Expect what free has always meant: shared addresses that targets recognise, and no session persistence, which breaks anything behind a login.
What this page cannot tell you
Why it stopped is not in the record. A dead name and an archive that runs out show that something ended, not the reason for it, and we will not put a reason in print that the record does not carry.
Our status check is one day from one vantage point, and a site that refuses requests from data centres would look the same as one that is switched off. We will check this page again by 1 January 2027.
