In late 2022 - early 2023, we took on an intern (Robert) under Tor Project's umbrella to work on SocksTrace, a proxy leak mitigation tool with wide-ranging applicability across the privacy space. We're super excited to report that NLnet's NGI0 Core Fund has just awarded funding for Robert and me to continue development of SocksTrace. Contributing to the broader ecosystem is a core part of Namecoin's activities (we don't just maintain a blockchain).
