About PrivacyTest Labs

By Sarah Chen Updated

PrivacyTest Labs is an independent testing laboratory for privacy-focused online services. We were founded in March 2024 by a small team of privacy researchers and security engineers.

Who we are

Sarah Chen — Lead researcher. Background in network security and privacy engineering. Previously worked on anonymity networks and secure messaging protocols.

Our mission: The no-KYC service market is full of scams, dead services, and fake reviews. We test every service with our own crypto funds, use it for weeks, then publish honest results.

How we fund our testing

We maintain a small budget of cryptocurrency (BTC, XMR, USDT) specifically for testing. Every service we review is purchased with our own funds. We do not accept free accounts or sponsored placements.
