Simple DNSCrypt is a free, open-source application that enables users to secure their network connection by encrypting Domain Name System (DNS) traffic. It works by creating a secure, encrypted tunnel between the user's computer and the DNS server, thus preventing third-parties from accessing and manipulating DNS queries. This makes it impossible for ISPs, governments, and other malicious actors to track users’ online activities. Simple DNSCrypt also provides DNS filtering, which can be used to block access to malicious websites and to protect users from phishing attacks. The application can also be used to bypass censorship and access blocked websites. It is easy to install and configure, making it accessible to a wide range of users.
