I would seriously consider moving back to Firefox if we had ports of uBlock/uMatrix. But congrats on the nice new features, gorhill, and thank you.
Just to do some catching up: certain things like video (anything else?) are supposed to be listed in the plugins cell but are not due to a...
To me µMatrix and µBlock go hand in hand, so it just seems natural for them to be mentioned and cross-referenced in both threads.
It seems µBlock also breaks that page with Anti-ThirdpartySocial checked (but I don't know if this is the type of breakage you were referring to,...
CrowdInspect looks like a nice piece of software, but its privacy policy is troubling (see section 4 and 4.2 of the EULA, yikes). You might also...
A hardware and software firewall combo is essential, but which is more important is debatable. I use TinyWall, which is a Windows Firewall...
Huh?
I've yet to hear of any software (let alone an entire OS) whose operation depends on log files—most are error and install logs anyway, and...
I like the new rules syntax, easy to understand and edit manually, but what I meant was that I didn't see the need to have a new line for each...
Any plans to further streamline the rule syntax? Very minor gripe, but as it is now it seems unnecessarily repetitious/cluttered to me.
@harsha_mic — I came across one site today but I have seen others in the past when I used Firefox with NoScript (which can block this...
I don't suppose you'd implement a block or at least an alert to these type of annoying, "sneaky" redirects: <noscript><meta http-equiv="refresh"...
D'oh... I hadn't realized they were font-based icons. Guess it turned out well regardless. :D EDIT: @gorhill, I noticed from that rev that you...
Well, their security white paper does look impressive (https://www.passwordbox.com/media/Security-White-Paper-v1.8.pdf). But the password...
Then there is a special irony in the "less is more" statement in your signature. :rolleyes:
I tested on the µMatrix GitHub page after installing. I removed 1st-party from the whitelist globally (so only css and img are whitelisted...
Just installed µMatrix 0.8.0.0 alpha 3 for a quick test run and it seems images are being blocked when a site is not whitelisted (1st-party or...
That's where not "keeping all your eggs in one basket" applies, and where other security/privacy systems come into play. A good firewall setup can...
That's an excellent idea @Mayahana! Although going through each site currently stored in LastPass and changing my password on those sites, while...
I think it's highly, highly unlikely your average or even sophisticated hacker will gain access to your LastPass data; the top notch encryption...
I do, because I use it, but whether I should is another matter. The case has been made by the LastPass folks and other security professionals for...
Startpage pulls its results from Google—albeit anonymously—but its image search uses Bing (also anonymously if you choose) which happens to suck,...
I absolutely love the local mirroring feature. I was going to write my own extension to do this but was still thinking of how to go about it the...
That's good to know, I hadn't bothered to look into the technical details. I'll happily stick with my HTTPSB/µBlock combo anyway.
Bluhell Firewall is something like it which I use in Firefox (but I never use Firefox). Although it's high-performance, it has no other features...
Separate names with a comma.
