## Description

"Noiszy is a plugin that creates meaningless web data by navigating your browser randomly around a list of sites, to confound tracking & personalization algorithms and burst filter bubbles."

This is a direct reupload of the open source chrome extension "noiszy."  It generates random web traffic so that your isp and such doesn't know what your actual web activity is. The original repository is at <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/12e0df857fd54e3d0f0f16658353206a3596606d8328f5d7da95f222f2c22553/https%3A//github.com/noiszy/noiszy" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/noiszy/noiszy</a>.
