About this application

Fauxx - Privacy Through Deception is an Android application that generates decoy signals in order to confuse data collection profiles. Instead of blocking collection directly, it works by adding misleading activity patterns, so the resulting profile contains noise alongside any real signals. The application is published by digital-grease under the AGPL-3.0-only license.

The program is aimed at users who want a deception-based approach to profiling rather than a conventional tracker blocker or permission manager. Its stated purpose is the production of false or distracting data points, and its use is limited to Android devices. It should be understood as a tool for creating decoy behavior, not as a complete privacy system.
