Method and system for providing persona masking in a computer network

A machine, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory connected to the processor, the memory storing instructions executed by the processor to:
• host a persona service platform to allow a user to designate a selected persona from a pool of potential personas, wherein each potential persona is associated with the user and has a distinct set of computer network attributes including a user name and email address, wherein each potential persona is associated with a compartmentalized online activity and therefore is operative as a personal privacy proxy, and
• designate a virtual private network egress point for the selected persona, wherein the virtual private network egress point masks computer network attributes of the selected persona, wherein the virtual private network egress point for the selected persona is automatically selected from a pool of virtual private network egress points utilized by the pool of potential personas and wherein each potential persona is associated with a different virtual private network user account;
• and
• wherein the persona service platform allows the user to have multiple persona instances on different devices and each persona instance uses a different VPN account and VPN egress point, thereby VPN accounts are unrelated, making the user's persona correlation more difficult to discover.
