I really enjoy Firefox on Android as I can install a bunch of extensions and I find those extensions game changer, especially on the mobile.
One of my favorites are
- Libredirect - literally one of my favorite ones. Redirects popular sites to privacy focused frontends, like YouTube to Invidious, etc.
- uBlock Origin - I guess everyone knows this one
- Privacy Badger - blocks trackers
- Ghostery - blocks trackers, ads, scripts, etc.
What extensions do you guys use?
You misunderstand. They’re calculating a fingerprint that identifies you across sessions despite you changing up a bunch of values on your browser with an extension because that’s all highly detectable. They know it’s junk data they don’t use it. It actually is worse because you stop blending in with the crowd.
You’re better off blending in then trying to look unique with every visit. The latter is a flawed concept.
Read the arkenfox guide they get into it. Most extensions just reduce your ability to blend in to the crowd and thus should be avoided.
They don’t. I’m telling you they don’t. When I disable my ad blocker, the ads I see are not relevant to me. Many times they’re not even in a language that I can speak.
They are not tracking me between sessions. Its obvious.
What you’re saying makes sense, and its why Tor does what it does. But in practice, this works too.
