Hiding your referrer data is not considered Cloaking, but Spoofing.
and spoofing your referrer data is easy. It's actually divided to several patterns:
1. Blanking the ref
2. Faking it - using some website you own
3. Parasiting - where one uses some 3rd party website as referrer
As for the methods:
1. Blanking it - is easy, just get an SSL to the domain and make sure all traffic is initiated from this domain (i.e. not redirected to this domain), then, your ref value will be blank
2. Faking it - u need to pass the traffic to another website you own first, and then then self submit a form with the parameters you want using JS. After submit is ok, redirect (using window.location) to your money site, hence the ref to the money site will actually be the website that self submits the form
3. Parasiting - Not very easy to come up with websites that you can exploit their redirection mechanism. Try looking at FB, Twitter and all the socials - all have built in url that actually redirects you when sharing a link
Good Luck

You could use tracking script like Prosper202 to hide your traffic source.
Affiliate network will see only your domain where tracking script is installed. (tracking.yourdomain.com for example)

Useful info, thanks.
Will the affiliate network tolerate it?
Most of them prohibit hiding or faking your traffic source.
What is your experience in real life?

If your traffic is legit and converts for the advertiser i don't see a problem with it.
If you want extra security Prosper202 has cloaking function built in it but it slows down your redirect a little bit.
I've been using Prosper202 myself for a year now and haven't had any problems.

I would use Propser 202 and then just buy some junk traffic to keep the CPA company busy.

If you'd rather not be potentially tracked while browsing the internet, you'll want to hide IP address. There are several ways to do this, with varying levels of ease and reliability.There are guides to follow to keep your online identity hidden.
Pls. read and understand OP and don't just increase your post numbers, thanks.
