Websites build a fingerprint of your device, allowing them to track you across time and build a profile of your online activity. This is done by tracking dozens of values: HTTP headers, TLS handshake, browser characteristics, and more. 404 is a local proxy that replaces your fingerprint with a consistent device profile. Built for journalists, lawyers, researchers, or anyone who believes their online behavior is their own business.

Who hunted 404?

404 was hunted by Seth Honda. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
