You mean this[1]?

It's not open source, has no license, runs on Windows only, and requires an activation code to use.

Also, the privacy policy on their website is missing[2].

Anyone remotely concerned about privacy wouldn't come near this thing.

Ah, you're the author, no wonder you're shilling for it.

The app has a licence well visible when you install the app. The rest is written in the website and in github. Then about: requires an activation code to use, ofc it is made for ethical research purposes, so yes I am distributing it responsibly. And you can see the videos in the youtube channel for how it works. But the most important point is that you can try it easily with a firewall to see that it do not leak bytes like all the rest there. That´s what i call privacy, It has a button that cut all connection. You can say what you want but that´s it that´s all.

		Closed source, without 3rd party independent review and people should just trust you? As if your app cannot start sending data away in a month or attempt to detect monitoring software, to name a couple
