About Device Guard

Websites can identify and track you using the unique names of your cameras, microphones and speakers, even without cookies. Device Guard prevents this by hiding your real devices and replacing their names with fake ones. Enable it, pick a spoofed name or hit randomize, and browse knowing no one is fingerprinting your devices. No data collected. Everything runs locally on your browser.
