Hi, I created this one-time account to address some comments in this news item I'm Thorin-Oakenpants, the creator and maintainer of the ghacks user.js. I don't want to get into a long discussion, if you want that then bring it up in the github repo. --- The FF67+ changes that introduce cryptomining and fingerprinting protection have nothing to with anything in the user.js (except Tracking Protection preferences - which we have not included, and the TP prefs that are there are all inactive and not applied - we're happy to leave the defaults up to Firefox). TP's fingerprinting is about blocking fingerprinting scripts, whereas actual anti-fingerprinting in terms of privacy.resistFingerprinting or disabling WebGL etc are about stopping JS etc leaking too much entropy in the first place. |
