What is Trace?
Trace is an open-source web extension designed to be a comprehensive privacy toolkit for users' browsers. The extension aims to protect against various advanced tracking techniques employed by websites across the web. Trace offers experimental features such as Proxy IP Spoofing, which attempts to deceive visited sites into believing the user's computer is a proxy requesting on behalf of another client, resulting in more privacy due to a less consistent IP address being provided to third parties
