NoiseBox Tools Aim to Poison Browsing Data Tracking
Original: A screen full of data poison! Clockwise from top: NoiseBox Chrome Based Crawler Extension, NoiseBox router-level Wyse Cr
NoiseBox, an open-source privacy project, is promoting a suite of tools designed to flood data brokers and trackers with junk: a Chrome-based crawler extension, a router-level crawler, and an upcoming DNS shuffler. The developer says the tools work together to obliterate browsing patterns and blur real user behaviour, with all code freely available to the public.
Why now: Growing public concern over online tracking and data profiling is driving interest in anti-surveillance and data-poisoning tools.
