What is Nym

You should not have to worry about surveillance. Privacy should simply be the default of the internet. But due to the way the internet operates today, the consequences of surveillance threaten all of us, from stolen funds and identities to profiling and human rights violations.

Use Nym to get network-level privacy. Nym protects against even the most powerful network adversaries that can observe every packet going in and out of your internet connection. With Nym, you can use the internet without fear of being watched.
