Is Leet Browser really free of telemetry?
Yes. It has no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising code, no accounts and no server of its own. The only thing it fetches by itself on Windows is a small signed update notice from GitHub, and that can be switched off in Settings. The Verify page shows how to check this yourself.
Is Leet Browser open source?
Not yet. The source code is private today, so it can't be audited line by line. We publish installer hashes, signed update details and a recipe for watching the browser's network connections, so the key claims can be checked from outside.
Is it as private as Tor Browser or Mullvad Browser?
No, and it doesn't claim to be. Leet blocks known trackers, tries HTTPS first and keeps nothing on a server, but it doesn't hide your IP address and doesn't try to make all users look identical. Use Tor Browser for anonymity and Mullvad Browser for strong fingerprinting resistance. Leet is for people who want a calm, tracker-free everyday browser with nothing to configure.
What is it built on?
The Windows version is built on Chromium through the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF 154), with Chromium's background services switched off. The Android version uses the system Android WebView, which Google updates through Google Play.
Which systems does it run on?
Windows 10 and 11 can install the beta today. Android is coming soon to Google Play. There is no macOS, Linux or iPhone version.
Windows says "unknown publisher". Is it safe?
The installer is not code-signed yet, because a signing certificate is a paid yearly cost we haven't taken on. Windows SmartScreen therefore may show a warning. Check the file's SHA-256 against the one on the Verify page before you run it. If it matches, it is the file we published.
How does Leet make money?
It doesn't. It is free, shows no ads, sells no data and has no paid tier. It is built by one independent developer.
Can I see which trackers were blocked?
Yes. Click the shield chip in the address bar and a card lists every blocked host on that page with a count. Leet only blocks other companies’ requests; the site you opened is never touched. The list stays on your device.
Does it keep my browsing history?
Yes, on both Windows and Android, so you can find a page again. It is stored only on your own device and never leaves it: there is no sync, no account and no server to send it to. Private tabs are never added. You can remove single pages or clear it all at any time, and on Windows you can switch it off in Settings.
How do I report a problem or a privacy concern?
Email hi@v3n0mt3ch.com. If you see Leet make a network connection that is not in the table above, we want to know and will treat it as a bug.
