Fool spies by mixing your real browsing activity with fake simulated browsing activity.

History Fool: Blend Real & Simulated Internet Traffic for Privacy

History Fool is a unique Chrome extension aimed at protecting user privacy. Not just a simple IP hider, it mixes actual online data with fake simulated traffic to fool potential trackers. By blending real and fake browsing activity, it poses a challenge for advertisers, ISPs, big tech firms, government agencies, and hackers attempting to identify or follow the user’s actual online behavior. Use a packet sniffer to see in action the traffic simulation noise generated by History Fool. This free tool is brought to you by Hide-My-IP.com.
