Hydra Veil

Tor Browser requires restricting Javascript and lies with its words (called spoofing). It’s like walking through airport security with a bag over your head and a fake ID.

This often breaks websites and causes user friction.

While HydraVeil creates a new environment that realistically fools websites into thinking this is your real screen size, timezone, fonts, and many other factors. It’s like getting past airport security by changing your face.

Both LibreWolf and Brave are immediately fingerprinted by Big Tech websites. A single use on a Big Tech site can brand the user across different services.

Fingerprinting 101

Virtual Machines slow performance, consume massive amounts of resources, waste disk space, and make you wait to even load them. This makes managing many environments painful.

In contrast, HydraVeil profiles load instantly with no performance drag, while still providing most of the isolation and fingerprint protection benefits that virtual machines offer.

Comparison to spoofing & VMs

Nostr is a decentralized social media protocol that uses cryptographic keys as identity. Users sign their messages, which are distributed by relays. Because it’s not tied to any single server or jurisdiction, it is censorship resistant.

Video: How NOSTR works

Because Nostr uses encryption as identity, we can verify exactly who is operating each VPN node. HydraVeil ties Nostr keys to WireGuard VPN keys and cryptographically verifies node operators.

Users choose which operators they trust for different profiles.

One operator can route system traffic while another routes browser traffic, preventing any single party from seeing everything.

How NOSTR VPN works

Traditionally, people in different countries use different ISPs, connected securely via SSL.

Mullvad’s aggressive marketing has effectively turned it into a centralized global ISP.

Many privacy influencers and users share the same infrastructure, meaning both sides of communication are often visible to the same providers.

Even websites and VPNs share infrastructure providers like DataPacket, creating conflicts of interest.

HydraVeil uses smaller, country-specific providers combined with decentralized Nostr operators to avoid centralized data collection.

Each HydraVeil profile costs 1 Euro per month, paid in cryptocurrency. You can run as many profiles as you want. When enabled, the app generates a unique crypto address.

Billing Tutorial How to get crypto

Billing is automated for Monero, Bitcoin Lightning, Bitcoin, and Litecoin. For annual purchases with 6 profiles, fiat options are available including gift cards, prepaid cards, or physical cash.

HydraVeil fingerprints are designed for Linux, but the VPN service works on Android, iPhone, Windows, macOS, and any router supporting WireGuard.

Tutorials by device

Cheap burner-style billing with decentralized operators lets you isolate your PC’s home IP from your phone’s cellular connection, preventing cross-device correlation.

Isolate devices

Yes. The HydraVeil client is GPL open-source Python. Browser configurations are visible to the end-user with no obfuscation or hidden behavior.

Our code Documentation

HydraVeil creates an isolated graphical display, filesystem, networking stack, and IP addresses. It synchronizes fonts, canvas behavior, and timezone with the exit node to prevent fingerprint mismatch.
