LibHideIP (LIBrary for Hiding the IP) is a library which partially (read below for limitations) ensures that no program under its control can obtain the local IP address, to ensure the privacy of the user. LibHideIP does this by intercepting calls to some C library functions and replacing them by its own substitutes.
The IP address that would be obtained is first changed to a neutral address, like 0.0.0.0 or 127.0.0.1 and returned to the caller.
See a diagram describing LibHideIP's operation.
The most up-to-date documentation can be found in the package itself, a generated copy is available here, in the docs directory.
Documentation is also available on the LibHideIP wiki.
Screenshots are available on the SourceForge project page.
Current version is 2.2.

RPM dependencies:
The most up-to-date instructions can be found in the package itself, a generated copy is available here, in the docs directory.
Requirements for compiling:
make
program
Type ./configure
to configure the library for your system.
If you want to enable the public interface of LibHideIP, configure the
library with ./configure --enable-public-interface
.
The public interface is compatible with SWIG, so you can make native bindings to LibHideIP for any supported language.
LibHideIP allows some programs to be banned (not allowed to run under
LibHideIP, because they might need access to the IP address). One banning
file is always supported - ${sysconfdir}/libhideip.progban
(${sysconfdir}
is
/usr/local/etc
unless set otherwise during configure).
If you want to disable additional banning files pointed to by environment
variables, configure the library with
./configure --enable-environment=no
If you want to disable additional banning files in users' home directories,
configure the library with
./configure --enable-user-files=no
Type make
to compile the library.
LibHideIP assumes that your host has
maximum 100 aliases and addresses. If you think this number is not enough,
configure LibHideIP with
./configure --with-max-host-names=n
or compile LibHideIP with:
make CFLAGS='-DLHIP_MAX_HOSTNAMES=n'
where 'n' is your desired number (10 is minimum).
Documentation comes complied (and can be copied right away), but can be changed
and recompiled, if you have the makeinfo
program (texinfo
package).
Type make install
to install the library. Read the docs on how to make the library running.
Type info libhideip
(after installation) or info doc/libhideip.info
(before installation) to get help.
THE LIBRARY HAS BEEN TESTED, BUT IT MAY NOW OR LATER CONTAIN ERRORS, WHICH MAY LEAD TO INCORRECT PROGRAM BEHAVIOUR. READ THE LICENSE FOR A WARRANTY (THERE IS NONE).
LibHideIP can do nothing if:
LibHideIP, in various versions, has been successfully compiled on the following systems:
