The team says the profiles recreate an environment between the operating system and browser that cannot be detected, unlike Mullvad Browser, which it says "just lies and blocks." Its two-layer split-traffic networking aims to make packet sizes differ between a home ISP and VPN datacenter routers, and the initial release supports Debian-based, Arch-based and Fedora systems. Each profile costs $1 in cryptocurrency, and the team says the app does not require sudo to install or run the browser-only layer. ## Article Our VPN is Now Live! Simplified Privacy beta goes live today. Anti-Fingerprint Profiles Change Your: -Screen Resolution -Browser Type & Version -Time Zone (Matches Chosen IP) -Secure & Isolated Filesystem -Stay Logged in with Isolated Cookies Mullvad Browser The difference between our system and something like Mullvad Browser, is their browser just lies and blocks. We realistically recreate an environment in-between the underlying operating system and the browser, which can not be detected. With 2-Layer Split-Traffic Networking: -Your Home ISP and VPN Datacenter Routers see different packet sizes, this throws off surveillance You can get started with just $1 in your favorite coin a) Layer 2 WireGuard Profiles (“Browser Only”) b) Hiding Tor, with a Tor -> Socks5 Proxy c) Optional: System-wide Layer 1 WireGuard Our initial release supports: -Debian (& Mint, Ubuntu, Zorin, Pure, PopOS, ect) -Arch (Vanilla Arch, Manjaro, ect) -Fedora Perks: -Does NOT require sudo to install or do layer 2. -You can optionally keep using your own Layer 1 VPN to remain anonymous to us. -$1 in Cryptocurrency per Profile. Keep your activity Isolated. Final Thoughts: We crossed the finish line after 3 years, thousands of hours, no VCs, no fiat banks, and only tiny crypto-PGP contracts among our tribe. I love you, I did everything I could to help you. But now, like a toddler going to kindergarten for the first day, it’s time for this app to walk on it’s own. version: 1.1.9 SHA-256 sign: c1cb64e684ed4092f6686962026f05f6fbbfce5489dec496a7d9d3780cf91dd3 Forever Your’s, Simplified Privacy Team PGP Fingerprint: 69CB 0BFD 6BA4 3956 0951 7557 487D 56A4 9868 C1E8 Proceed to the Install: If you really want to learn and take your privacy to the next level, Learn about HydraVeil, Access our VPN, and subscribe to our new content via: Podcast, Email List, Nostr, Bastyon, RSS, or join the Signal Group
