Pre-release
Pre-release
PATANYX 0.9.62 is a pre-release.
Download it from https://patanyx.edgexene.io/download/ rather than
from this page. The download page carries the installation notes and
explains the SmartScreen prompt a new certificate produces.
What changed
- The Library. A bookmark manager with folders, tags and Quick
Access, holding everything you save in one place. - Stronger Fingerprint Divergence. Audio noise is applied per sample
and keyed to the recording, so it no longer cancels out under
normalization. Protection reaches ordinary background workers, which is
where a tracker moves to avoid it, including on sites whose content
policy forbids blob workers. Element measurements carry sub-pixel noise
and hardware hints are capped. Module workers, data: and blob: workers,
SharedWorker and ServiceWorker are still not covered. - A waiting update is visible. When a check finds a new version, a
banner appears at the top of the window naming it. Nothing installs
until you restart, and that restart is still your click.

Verifying what you downloaded
Every binary is signed with Sigstore. Verify one with:
cosign verify-blob PATANYX.exe \

The Windows builds are also Authenticode signed and timestamped.
SHA256 checksums are listed in SHA256SUMS, and the update manifests
served from /v1/ carry the same hashes inside a signature the browser
checks before it will install anything.
