Pressemitteilung von: JonDos
PR Agentur: JonDos GmbH
(openPR) - The JonDos GmbH, who also develops the anonymisation service JonDonym, since today offers the newest version 2.0 of JonDoFox for download. JonDoFox is an open-source browser profile for Mozilla Firefox 3 which is optimised for high security and best privacy. The profile is available with installation routines for Windows, Linux and MacOS X. There is, moreover, a windows installation packet for portable operation from a flash drive.

JonDoFox is preconfigured for both the anonymisation tool JonDo and Tor if they are installed. However, the profile also works together with other proxy and VPN services.

JonDoFox solves two big problems of IP anonymisation services: On the one hand, most users are not able to configure their web browser correctly and secure. On the other hand, even individually well configured web browsers differ in many details (system, version, language,...). If this information is not technically equalised for all users and for all web protocols, observers (web sites, anonymisation services) may use them to create surf profiles of each individual user. Users of JonDoFox may check their browsers settings by using the anonymity test on the JonDos web site:

Upcoming versions of JonDoFox will bring even more enhancements: In particular, JonDos currently develops a privacy-friendly filter extension for the browser language JavaScript. Moreover, a separate development for the browser Opera is planned.

JonDos supplies her customers with open source tools to assert their right for informational self-determination. Moreover, the company would like to demonstrate the marketability of high-quality privacy tools.

JonDos as enterprise acts as billing service and mediator between users of the anonymisation service JonDonym, the "JonDonauts", and the independent operators of the service, the Mix Operators. The basis of our business model is selling the access to the service to the JonDonauts, while paying the Mix Operators for relaying their traffic over so-called Mix Cascades.

JonDos develops and provides free open source software for running and using the JonDonym service in cooperation with researchers of the german universities TU Dresden and University of Regensburg.
