Genlogin: an anti-detect browser for multi-accounting and automation

genlogin

If you want to engage in multi-accounting in peace, an ordinary browser like Yandex or Google Chrome will not work. The system will “realize” in the first minutes that the accounts are created and managed from one device. The outcome is always the same - a ban. And the whole network of accounts will be banned, not just a certain one. Each Internet user is assigned a digital fingerprint, which algorithms use to track users.

There are browsers with the function of masking the digital fingerprint - anti-detect browsers for multi-accounting. The interface is almost the same as regular browsers, but the functionality is different. In anti-detect browsers create multiple virtual spaces and manage dozens of accounts. We have already written reviews about anti-detect browsers: AdsPower and Undetectable.
