    Hi there!I'll check if adblocker installs and works in mailnews. My main interest is https://github.com/AdguardTeam/cname-trackers, which works in ublock (but ublock 1.16 doesn't work in mailnews). I will test with adblocker or other similar. Thanks!

    Hi. Does anyone know if there is a version of ublock origin working in mailnews? Thanks.

    Just as an illustration, see the printout of lightbeam (addon that shows the sites you visit, and the resources (cdn, fonts, etc) they take from the cloud. These are 200 pages/subpages I visit almost daily, for work and leisure (all mainstream). For my research I have similar pics in sp52. If you visit those sites without proper settings, the app will show not the neat balls you see below, but a bunch of interconnected meshes made of sites, and of the common resources they use to keep our attention. To avoid that interconnection means privacy. But that information remain in your isp, and the multiple cloud-spaces where (generic) you have most of your data, which makes that information a security issue. For that reason, site/tab isolation (containerization) is a must. And for that reason, you should use, if your hardware allows, multiprocess.

    In another thread (webp and exodus from the internet or similar), someone mentioned qwant serves(d) webp images. Are you using a post september build?

    Arkenfox stuff (including its precedents) has been around for more than a decade, I reckon. So has UB. Both work well in mypal68, provided you read with attention.
  6. dmiranda
    That sounds wise and well informed

    I think @Sampei.Nihira put it all there. I follow (according to my taste and needs) arkenfox's user.js prescriptions. Two points to add. 1) I (nowadays) use this relatively unique profile in a unique browser to access the big cats of the e-oligopoly. As a foreigner, therefore, all data in this profile are belong to them, so to speak. There my contribution to thee. 2) I even surf in what they manage to suggest, and let them bots spy each other spying my not clicking any of the bait. So far I still get the fish, so I'm not thinking much of plan b, seriously ;P.

    Same said of prior visits, same day, same browser.

    Right now I just got: "Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 190,855 tested in the past 45 days.Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys at least 17.54 bits of identifying information." This was the last of many, 5 maybe 6 test today, all unique. One addon that manages to solve the issue of useragent (the principal vector of uniqueness testing with a fresh profile) is chamaleon, an old and very good xul extension (gone webextension now) with the same functions as before, and effective in mypal. I use the old xul extension in sp52, but it's database of browsers is unusable, really.

    Not quite true, once or twice over the last few years I was there too, at least once every time (that I can remember of), I must remark.
  11. dmiranda
    Well, I have visited that place with a number of browsers (including mypal) to confirm, every time, my uniqueness.
  12. dmiranda
    How many people do you think are browsing with ff68 right now?
  13. dmiranda
    Well. I don't know about adguard (except for its lists), but thank you very much for sharing your knowledge over time. I can confirm that using UB in hard mode you can both have most (not all) of your current social media requirements, while allowing you to surf with relative privacy. I wonder, @Sampei.Nihira, what lists would you recommend for a beast like mypal68. Be well.
  14. dmiranda
    Cool. Thanks.
  15. dmiranda
    Forgive my ignorance, but you do that in the config.js of the specific addon you are installing?
  16. dmiranda
    Like prefs, this is a self generated file. It's meant to speed up startup, I reckon, including parts of your browsing story, your extensions, and preinstalled addons (the ones that mozilla puts in), including preinstalled search engines. I dont' mind slow startups (they're fast in mypal68, anyway), so I rebuild my profiles from scratch on every restart. Having edited search.json.mozlz4, addonStartup.json.lz4 and places.sqlite doesn't avoid "reinstallation" of those mozilla sprouts of chromism.

    If you use canvas blocker and/or a combination of canvas.poisondata and resist.fingeprinting, you are basically guaranteed to have a unique fingertprint, every time you visit sites like that. The opposite that TOR, that's the intent. If you are not using any of the above, you should.
  18. dmiranda
    Unfortunately no. It's something with my settings. Thanks!
  19. dmiranda
    Oh my. And me thinking that I could avoid the nuisance.
  20. dmiranda
    Good to know we are in good hands. The game is what it is.

    In mozilla forks, I block access to my fonts, except the ones I whitelist. I hope I can find a way to do the same with chrome.
  22. dmiranda
    I don't use AV. At most, test files with Clamwin, or online. But I don't bother much, really.
  23. dmiranda
    My god, a pain to get into omni.ja.
  24. dmiranda
    As per the registry items at HKEY_USERS\S-yourpresonalregistryhive\Software\Theodor2, you can delete them and then they recreated with no value (which I prefer, telemetry wise). I'd personally would like to get rid of the source of it, that has nothing to do with feodoro2, but with mozilla's learning of spyware from chrome.
  25. dmiranda
    I also deleted them from extensions.ini. However, on a crash (leading to a rebuild of said items) they comeback. In search.json, they remain hidden (but are there). In extensions.ini they also comeback, active (as seen in about:support). I don't think this is feodoer's making. It is the stock mozilla. I haven't yet found the root for this re-creation.
