WindowsSpyBlocker 🛡 is an application written in Go and delivered as a single executable to block spying and tracking on Windows systems ⛔️.

The approach of this project is to capture and interpret network traffic 🚦 based on a set of tools. Depending on the interactions ⛓ between services and source or destination of traffic, rules are created and sorted by assignment.

Blackbird was designed to alleviate spending hours on tweaking your privacy settings by using some known and less-known techniques to fully disarm Windows without leaving behind even the smallest possible footprint.

There are other tools that claim to block Windows spying but they are cumbersome to use and not as powerful or are limited in scope. So the author took Windows apart, piece by piece, analyzed web traffic, system calls, file changes,etc., compared different configurations, designed and built a stand-alone tool and spent hundreds of hours on beta testing so anyone can use it and it gets the job done right.

Block Windows spyware, on both the application and network level, with dynamic filtering and without editing the HOSTS file or firewall settings as well as preventing diagnostic, password, contact, URL, SMS, handwriting, location, and P2P-update sharing.

Updated frequently and regularly, as long as Windows gets updates so will Blackbird.

Blackbird Features:

Disables OneDrive
Disables Cortana
Disables Bing-integration
Disables Wi-Fi Sense
Disables system-wide Telemetry on all Windows versions
Disables Xbox Live services
Disables web content evaluation / URL check-in ("SmartScreen")
Disables Windows Media Online DRM
Disables Windows P2P Update sharing
Disables all application metric collection agents
Disables all AutoLoggers

Patches various data-leaks (IE/EDGE/Defender/Explorer/MRT)
Removes Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA)
Disables Diagnostic Tracking / "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" service
Disables WAP-push Message Routing service
Removes your unique Ad-ID tracking token
Removes Windows 10 upgrade setup files on Vista, 7, 8, 8.1
Removes a bunch of Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 telemetry updates
Blocks 100+ different Microsoft tracking/telemetry/ad servers (supports IPv6/IPv4, Wifi/Eth)

WPD is a portable app to manage your Windows 10 privacy and firewall settings, uninstall Windows apps, and decide what apps can access your information.

WPD is broken down into four categories; Privacy, Firewall, Apps, and Tweaker and the main interface lets you know how many issues there are or if there are settings that need to be adjusted. Once you open any of the four categories, they all are readily available on the left side no matter where you are.
