Anonymity score
An anonymity score summarizes how much a connection looks like a real, direct user. Ours deducts fixed points per signal and explains each one.
What the score is
The anonymity score is a number from 0 to 100 that condenses a dozen separate checks into one answer to the question "does this connection look like an ordinary person on an ordinary network?" It starts at 100 and loses points for each signal that websites treat as a reason for suspicion. The score is a convenience; the list of signals under it is the actual result, and every line explains what was found and links to the glossary entry that says how to fix it.
The score is deterministic. The same inputs always produce the same number, and there is no hidden model.
How points are deducted
- Datacenter or hosting network: 25
- Tor exit node: 40
- Known VPN or proxy network, by network name: 20 (see VPN detection)
- Spamhaus DROP range: 20
- Blocklist listings: 5 each, up to 20
- Time zone that does not fit the IP's country: 10
- Browser language unusual for the country: 5
- WebRTC exposing a different public address: 15
- DNS resolver in a different country than the IP: 15
- IPv6 reachable and located in a different country: 15
- Proxy headers present in the request: 10
- Automation or headless signals, or a non-browser user agent: 20 (see browser fingerprint)
The result is clamped to 0–100 and labeled: 80–100 is clean, 50–79 is caution, below 50 is risky.
Which checks need your help
Some signals come from the server alone: the network classification, lists, headers, and user agent. Others need JavaScript in your browser: time zone, languages, automation flags, WebRTC, and IPv6. The DNS resolver check needs the DNS leak test to run, and the blocklist check is a separate lookup. Signals that have not run are shown as pending and do not change the score, so a score computed with JavaScript disabled is incomplete, not good.
How to use it
Open the anonymity score page with your proxy, VPN, or browser profile active. Fix the highest deductions first, then reload. A datacenter address cannot be fixed from the browser side; everything else can. The proxy checker gives the network verdict alone, and the IP checker shows all the raw data without scoring.
What the score is not
It is not what any particular website computes. Real fraud systems use private data and behavioral signals we cannot see. The score tells you which of the publicly checkable signals you are exposing; it cannot promise that a site will accept you.
