NoiseBoxWorks has released the NoiseBox DNS Shuffler, a lightweight browser extension that sends random DNS queries to your internet provider to obscure which sites you actually visit. The tool, published as free code on Codeberg, is pitched as a privacy measure that poisons browsing data collected by ISPs. Early reaction in privacy and security circles is small but curious.

Why now: A new free tool claiming to mask browsing activity from ISPs is notable to privacy-minded users amid ongoing concerns about data collection.
