One of the issues in its favor imo is it is the best in terms of obfuscating fingerprints. I can't comment on the other aspects like how it supports itself via private measurement but I would argue its the least bad option if not moderately recommendable. I would still use your own VPN to obscure your IP and anything that needs to be anonymous with other options but as a daily driver, you could do a lot worse.

Does anyone here use Cromite on Windows? If so, how did you "install" it?
