Noisy - Generate Random HTTP/ DNS Traffic noise to make your Data Unsellable
Enhance Privacy: Generate Random HTTP/DNS Traffic Noise with Python
If you're concerned about privacy and want to reduce the value of your web traffic data, generating random HTTP/DNS traffic can make your browsing patterns less predictable.
Web traffic data is often tracked and sold by advertisers, ISPs, and other entities to build behavioral profiles.
By generating random traffic, you can introduce "noise," making it harder for anyone monitoring your activity to draw meaningful conclusions.
Noisy - Generate Random Web Traffic Noisy
Noisy is a simple Python script that generates random HTTP/ DNS traffic noise in the background while you go about your regular web browsing, to make your web traffic data less valuable for selling and for extra obscurity.
