ShadowOS
ShadowOS is a lightweight, privacy-focused operating system and browser environment bundled with the entire 0xShadow ecosystem — fully integrated, secure, and portable.
“ShadowOS isn’t just an OS — it’s a digital sanctuary.”
It’s designed for those who want maximum control, minimum traceability, and total freedom across the internet — without relying on Big Tech platforms or bloated OSes that leak telemetry at every turn.
🔐 Why ShadowOS?
Modern systems are:
Bloated with background tracking
Constantly phoning home to big corporations
Incompatible with decentralized tools
ShadowOS flips that model by:
Blocking all telemetry and tracking by default
Embedding core privacy apps (like ShadowMail, Proxy, Vault, etc.)
Booting from USB or VM for total portability
