    Haven't been on it very long. So far, so good. May resubmit later.

    Can you please say more about how your add-on is falsifying the data gathered by tracking companies. Does it modify any fingerprinting data?

    If so is it compatible with the extension CanvasBlocker? Or does it do the same as CanvasBlocker.

    Hi KIMW, there is a more in depth explanation about how blocking fingerprinting works here: https://github.com/cowlicks/privacypossum#browser-fingerprinting

    Please let me know if you have any further questions after reading that. That way I can clarify documentation to avoid confusion in the future.

    Privacy Possum *should* be compatible with with CanvasBlocker.

    Tell me WHY are you using a UI library for display a couple of checkboxes ? What it will be the next time ? A virtual machine ? An add-on has to be light and efficient com'on.

    UPDATE :
    Thx for your reply, I understand. But I'm not talking about the code size. The size doesn't really matter, I'm just need a couple of bytes for doing a infinite loop. Using a library take more CPU and memory than vanilla. Using it one time isn't really a problem, but when you have five add-ons with five dependencies each... Grrrr ! Anyway you're doing a good job, thanks for your add-on.

    Hi, thank you for your comment. I plan on using react later to expand the features the popup has. There have been quite a lot of requests for this. As well as an options page. I may switch to a smaller library in the future. Adding react also helped fix several UI bugs, and makes the current UI easier to build on.

    FWIW, adding react only adds ~35kb to the packaged file, a %15 increase. Unpacked it is ~120kb. However the public suffix list, and multi-domain first party list combined are 160kb. So I didn't think it was a very significant size bump.

    This is the best anti-tracking addon! The developer is fast and responsive.

    Hello, can we use the extension in addition to "Privacy badger" and "ublock origin" and "disconnect"?

    Edit: Thank =)

    The add-on is good, accomplishes the essential as privacy.
    The only inconvenience that it does not protect me from the fingerprint tracking.
    I did two online tests(Am I unique?, Panopticlick EFF) with the extension enabled, and in both of them my test result was positive.

    TL;DR Panopticlick and Am I Unique use a homerolled assortment of tracking code that is impractical for commercial tracking.

    I'll go into a little detail about Panopticlick to explain more. Panopticlick uses a deployment of the open source fingerprinting tool Fingerprintjs2, along with their own unique fingerprinting code.

    I added some debug code and visited Panopticlick I see Privacy Possum detects the page accessing 12 API's that are marked for watching for fingerprinting. Except this is split over 3 different scripts:
    https://panopticlick.eff.org/static/fp2.js
    https://panopticlick.eff.org/static/fetch_whorls.js
    https://panopticlick.eff.org/static/deployJava.js

    Privacy watches for fingerprinting on *per script basis*, this is a reasonable assumption because, normally a websites tracking code is bundled into one place, so that the tracking info can be easily aggregated and used. I'm not aware of a real deployment where tracking is split up like this. It is practical for panopticlick (and Am I Unique) because they want to present information about your tracking independently, and manage the code to do that in a more practical way.

    For a demonstration of the fingerprinting detection code, I usually point folks to:
    http://valve.github.io/fingerprintjs2/

    I think it is worth considering cases like Panopticlick, or Am I Unique, because they can be used to evade PP's novel detection. But I have not seen a case like this in the wild.
