Description

TrackMeNot is a browser extension or standalone application for Firefox, Chrome, and Opera that helps users protect their privacy on the web by masking their web searches. It works by randomly generating queries from a user-defined list of search terms and submitting them to search engines at regular intervals. These random queries make it difficult for anyone to identify the user’s real searches from the random queries, helping to protect the user’s privacy. TrackMeNot also allows users to define rules for when and how the random queries should be submitted, giving users more control over their privacy. Additionally, TrackMeNot is open source, meaning that anyone can review the code and make sure that it is secure and working properly.
