We build free, open-source privacy tools — encrypted chat, anonymous mail, untraceable voice, a whistleblower drop, a browser, a network layer. All given away.
But “free and open source” means nothing if you can’t check it. So:
- Source is public — read every line: github.com/Anon-Gratis
- Hashes are signed — verify the binary matches what we published
- Build it yourself — don’t want our binary? Compile it from source
We don’t want your trust. We want you to not need it. The only privacy tool that survives “trust me bro” is the one you can read.

So many people conflate privacy with anonymity.
They’re largely unrelated.I think this would be a relatively straightforward explanation. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Privacy - whether your door’s keys are given to someone.
Anonymity - whether or not someone can see what’s behind your door.
Security - whether or not your door is locked and has alarms.
Good & Bad practice examples
Good privacy: people can only enter and leave your door with your consent.
Good anonymity: people don’t know what’s behind your door.
Good security: people can’t break in easily, and if they do, you know.
Bad privacy: adversaries can enter and leave your door without your consent.
Bad anonymity: adversaries know what’s behind your door.
Bad security: adversaries can break in easily, and if they do, you don’t know.
Privacy - only those you allow can see what happens behind the door
Security - only those you allow can open the door
Anonymity - only those you allow know who the door belongs to
Secrecy - only those you allow know the door exists.
