adfilt VS privacytests.org

Keep in mind that neither of those lists are default lists and neither are maintained by the uBlock Origin team. Issues with those lists should be reported to their maintainers: - AdGuard URL Tracking Protection: https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardFilters/issues - Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163

Also, DDG Privacy Essentials, Privacy Badger and SmartHTTPS are redundant, you can remove them. (it's a similar story with ClearURLs if you add the Legitimate URL Shortener list to uBlock Origin)

ClearURLs for uBO (deletes tracking parameters on links and this solves the problem of Google, Amazon links being too long) Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool (same) I don't care about cookies (deletes the accept cookies screens and makes it look like you didn't answer the question, and some GDPR-compliant websites may interpret this as "So he/she doesn't want any cookies") If you want to explore more uBO filters you can check DandelionSprout's Github Repository

Also, FYI, ClearURLs for uBo is known to break some websites and even interferes with other similar lists (i.e. Legit URL, AdGuard URL Tracking Protection). If you still want to use this, then please report issues/ask questions at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163

Fixed in https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/commit/48d9f519661d996e1f4d09d33cfced391245c5f4. In the future, please report issues with Legit URL at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163 because: - this isn't an issue with uBo or it's filterlists - it was only luck that I saw this, and Imre (the maintainer) doesn't check Reddit. If you report it there, both of us get notified

It's included in some of uBO's filters, but if you want to add more, the main additional filter people are recommending adding is DandelionSprout's LegitimateURLShortener, which makes heavy use of removeparam. DandelionSprout also ported ClearURLs's rules to a uBO filter, although that one is more experimental.

It's not practical to mess with rules manually, uBO comes with many filter lists included that are not enabled by default, enable them if you want to; These lists are more than enough for most users, only add third-party lists if you need them (This is the only one I recommend).

Ok. If you have any problems, feel free to report them at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163 and DandelionSprout and me will try to help.

if it is gateway redirected (e.g. wait 5 sec. then click a button to destination) then use https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt on ublock origin

It's fixed in Actually Legitimate URL Shortener list: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/commit/7e6fc4c

No, https://privacytests.org/ is misleading, it shows only the results of the default browser settings - which absolutely nobody uses.

So as far as hardened chromium forks go brave is the best and all there really is. For Firefox based hardened browsers unless you feel like manually hardened stock FF yourself, librewolf and mullvad browser (mull on Android) which leads me to Tor but with the drawbacks that make it less practical for certaint things mullvad known for their VPN that is is very bignin privacy so much you have nothing that ties to it like 99% of anything now days as yoi have anonimity bcnyoinoau with cash-crypro-or use a voucher no name email address phone number bank etc to sign upso they partner with then tor project and made a clearnet version of tor hardened fingerprint resistant as well as cookies scripts ect multiple identity proxy and built-in security that tor has standard safer safest with no script uBo and and their VPN and dns to take the place of tors multiple relay and encryption that is the tor network with no telemetry you hide in plain site as all the other using it look like you. You can n use this browsers like you would brave or your "main' so history bookmarks passwords etc but that defeats the purpose IMO but librewolf is also very hardened fingerprint resistant focused but you can use it like were using brave and still have the privacy and security and convenience. I use all 4 with different search engines depending on what I'm looking for or doing and of in have to use chrome then ungoogled Chromium on desktop and cromite on Android (fork of bromite which lost support from the devs) mull brave and cromite on is what in use on mobile. This isn't a complete list as FOSS for mobile has quite a few to try these are my favorite, Firefox focus on Android is Worth mentioning too. Sorry for the incoherent book. https://privacytests.org/

you mean https://privacytests.org ?

librewolf https://privacytests.org/ for ios/android brave all the way https://privacytests.org/ios, https://privacytests.org/android

careful with brave https://www.ghacks.net/2023/10/18/brave-is-installing-vpn-services-without-user-consent/?amp https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/33726 among other things like the most popular browser compare site being owned by brave employees https://privacytests.org/ i guess when they say privacy they mean it, keeping things private from you too

https://privacytests.org/ he eventually disclosed his employer in the back area of that website somewhere so thats better i guess.

another one is how certain settings on brave search always reverts back on. or just one the send analytics one. if you use search on a different browser not their own. and etc.

and firefox is funded in large part by google.. do you really think they dont share information?

honestly acting like your browser is superior because no tracking is so silly lol. just use whatever browser you want and tune settings to your liking. harden if you must and move on. is it that much of a hassel? would you rather pay subscription for no tracking?

This site is constantly updated, so there is no need to have the same question all the time. https://privacytests.org/
