Releasing software without identifieable metadata - Drmeteoric3 - 12-11-2021

Sup guys, I would like to release a tool I've made a long time ago.
This tool is a bit unique in how it "does what it does", I'm afraid it's gonna attract a bit too much attention and might be held responsible for what others do with it.
I'm quite an experienced developer, but I honestly I don't have an idea what identifiable information a solution might contain, or what information a compiled executable could contain.

Any information on this? Thanks

I believe that the best way to do this is make a virtual machine with any username of your choice and install the necessary compilers needed to compile your tool. Upon compiling your tool, get a good VPN and upload it online with an alias of your choice. Just be sure to maintain it and be a more private-centered developer.

Or much better, check out the TrueCrypt (
