[QUOTE="Kubla, post: 801623, member: 58813"] I found this rather interesting and different kind of firewall for Windows (64 bit only) with a unique approach to data protection it is called [URL='https://www.xsossoftware.com/internet-privacy-software/']xSOS Firewall[/URL] This firewall uses an IP geo-location database which you must buy separately to protect your data from [URL='http://www.trackipaddresses.com/']here[/URL]. What it looks like it does use the database to match the site you are opening to its actual IP and blocking other connections leaching off of it like Google, Amazon etc... thus blocking tracking and data collection. I wanted to test it out but could not install it and after some email exchanges with them the developer they reproduced the problem and released a new version. The latest release works, now the GUI is not the prettiest and a little difficult to figure out but this is a brand new software so I am sure as it develops it will get better. I tested the trial internet privacy version, it works but I did not purchase the IP data base, at least not yet, to test the AI mode. If it works like I think it does one would be able to block everything from Facebook to Government trackers and data leaches but at a cost of keeping the IP database up to date . What do you think?
