Four-quadrant meme
Upper Left: Chrome Browser Logo; PayPal Honey logo; VeePN Logo.
Upper Right: Laughing Men In Suits (And Then I Said meme)
Bottom Left: Fennec F-Droid app icon; Privacy Badger logo; UBlock Origin logo; Decentraleyes logo.
Bottom Right: “Afraid to loose money stock photo”: Stock photo of middle-aged white male on couch holding three US hundred dollar bills with a mildly frightened facial expression.edit: also thanks to the peeps who identified the logos so I didn’t have to reverse image search every single one of them
Far out
It should tell us something that corporations will gleefully scrape up as much of our data as possible (even if we don’t use their services) but trying to get info out of a corporation (even stuff you have a direct legal entitlement too) is like getting blood from a stone.
Anyone else think the logo for Fennec is better than Firefox
Wait… UblockOrigin alone isn’t enough?
If you add the url shortener lists and set firefox Enhanced Teacking Protection to strict (enforces first party isolation), you only need Canvas Blocker.

Sure, i have his. If anyone knows more/better, please post.
i didn’t know that.Thanks.
dont use firefox use librewolf (a fork of firefox)
Claims like this need a reason 🤦♂️
Not OP, but it has better default settings for privacy IIRC. Nothing you can’t do in default FF mind you
Thank you!

Decentraleyes is a bit outdated. LocalCDN does the same thing and is more up-to-date.
Thanks, I didn’t know that. I’m learning now things on Lemmy!
how does honey work
Searches their database for a coupon code whenever it detects you’re on a store checkout page, then blasts all the coupon codes into the little box rapid fire. Sometimes it works, usually it doesn’t. PayPal then collects your browsing data through the plugin and sells it off.
Isn’t privacy badger kind of redundant with ublock origin? Chameleon might be a good alternative as I’m always worried my extensions will give me a unique fingerprint.
Yeah Privacy Badger is redundant, Privacy Guides only recommends installing uBlock Origin and changing some settings in Firefox to decrease the uniqueness in your browser fingerprint.
i still have privacy badger just incase
how does honey work
honey also be breaking my React code 😒
I’m not familiar with all the logos, mind filling me in?
That’s
librewolf, Privacy Badger, UBlock Origin and Decentraleyes if I’m not wrong.Edit : Fennec, not Librewolf
