FAQ

• What is hoax.tech?

  hoax.tech is a real-time traffic filtering service (cloaking). Cloaking allows you to show different content to different audiences: ad network bots and moderators see a safe version of your site, while your target visitors see your actual offers. The platform analyzes traffic across dozens of factors — country, source, device type, OS, user-agent, referrer, IP, JS fingerprints, and more.

• What traffic can be blocked?

  Depending on your settings, hoax.tech can filter out bots and ad network moderators, crawlers from anti-fraud and search services, users from specific countries or time zones, traffic from certain IP ranges, as well as visits through VPNs, proxies, or TOR.

• Why choose hoax.tech over other cloaking tools?

  Unlike many cloaking services, hoax.tech uses JavaScript Fingerprinting to collect detailed browser and device data such as screen resolution, OS, language settings, active plugins, and hundreds of other parameters. This makes it much harder for advanced bots to bypass detection. We’ve also built in Matchex, a machine learning system that constantly improves by analyzing millions of digital fingerprints. With its ever-growing dataset, Matchex can identify patterns even in the most sophisticated bots that usually blend in with real visitors. Both JavaScript Fingerprinting and Matchex are included in the basic plan, giving you advanced protection at the best price-to-performance ratio on the market.

• How does redirecting to the black page work?

  Depending on your settings, visitors can be redirected to the black page, or the black page can be displayed in an iframe.

• Do I need my own server?

  Yes, a server with PHP is required. The white page (the safe version for bots and moderators) can be hosted on your own server or created using services like Blogger, Wix, Tilda, Github, and others.
