Cover Your Tracks is a project of the Electronic Frontier Foundation that tests a browser to show how well it is protected from tracking and fingerprinting. It shows how trackers view the browser and gives an overview of the browser's most unique and identifying characteristics. Only anonymous data is collected through the site.
A browser fingerprinting test page that reports a range of signals, including timezone, Intl data, headless-browser and stealth percentages, WebRTC connection details, WebGL, screen properties, canvas, audio, fonts, speech and media information. It also lists JS/DOM, CSS and window feature results and provides a test interface with sections for workers, iframes, fonts, timezone and extensions.
Cwtch is a decentralized, privacy-preserving, metadata resistant messaging app. Communication is end-to-end encrypted and takes place over Tor v3 onion services. Participants can host their own safe spaces or lend infrastructure to others. The protocol is open, and anyone is free to build bots, services and user interfaces.
Cwtch is the official cwtch.im peer implementation, written mainly in Go. Its README describes it as privacy-preserving infrastructure for asynchronous, decentralized and metadata-resistant applications, extending the metadata-resistant Ricochet protocol to support asynchronous, multi-peer group communications through discardable, untrusted, anonymous infrastructure. The README notes that a server section is out of date and that no current docker container exists.
Data Brokers Watch curates a publicly available database of data brokers and makes it available to the research community. The dataset includes up to 60+ data points on services distributed across the globe, and is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. The project describes data brokers as companies that collect personal data and license it to other organizations.
DataRequests is a website that helps people generate GDPR requests to companies for their privacy rights. Users choose companies from a database or add their own, the site generates a request the user sends themselves, and it offers reminders and help assessing answers and complaining.

DNS Jumper is a free, portable tool that lets users change DNS servers with a few clicks. It includes IPv6 support, backup and restore of DNS settings, a command-line interface, and a feature that tests DNS response times to find the fastest server. The tool can also flush the DNS cache and add custom DNS servers.
A DNS speed benchmarking tool that performs an A record lookup for the apex domain name from more than 200 locations worldwide. The lookup time serves as a benchmark of DNS provider performance in different regions and allows debugging of self-hosted DNS servers and testing of routing logic. Test result retention is up to 30 days.
A free browser-based DNS speed test that benchmarks DNS-over-HTTPS servers from the user's location in real time. It sends live DoH queries locally without server-side code, times full round trips, and marks unresponsive servers as unavailable. Queries time out after five seconds, and results are intended for relative comparison between servers.
DNSTT.XYZ is a multi-platform open source client for DNS tunneling with dnstt support, aimed at bypassing DNS-based censorship in restricted environments. Builds are offered for Android, Windows, Linux and macOS, with an iOS version in development. Public tunnel servers have been discontinued, and users are directed to set up their own server.
DNSveil is a Windows DNS client supporting DNSCrypt, Anonymized DNSCrypt, DoH, DoT and plain DNS over UDP and TCP. It can find fastest secure DNS servers, create local plain DNS and DoH servers, use per-domain rules, and bypass SNI/DNS-based blocked websites through fragment or fake SNI. The project states it is open source and not a VPN; it does not change the user's IP address.
