(justifiably) much more worried about online privacy than these

corporate marketers who want to track their every move.

of tools to help you protect yourself from threats like these.
Below are 60 open source projects that can help you keep your
identity and your personal information safe. Note that these are

that we should have mentioned, feel free to add them in the
comments section below.”
