What is Trace - Online Tracking Protection?
Trace is an open source web extension which has been built from the ground up to be an easy privacy toolkit for the browser. An extension to stop multiple advanced tracking techniques employed by websites all over the web.
Trace can protect against:
- Canvas Fingerprinting
- Audio Fingerprinting (Updated!)
- WebGL Fingerprinting (New!)
- JS Crypto Currency Mining
- WebRTC Leakage
- User-Agent Tracking
- Browser Plugin Fingerprinting (Advanced)
- Hardware Fingerprinting Protection
- Beacon Requests
- Bad Top Level Domains
- Hyperlink Auditing
- HTTP Referrer Headers
- Google Header Tracking
- E-Tag Tracking
- Screen Resolution Tracking
- Battery API
- Specific Tracking Cookies
- URL Tracking Parameters
There are also experimental features, such as Proxy IP Spoofing which work by attempting to trick the site you're visiting into thinking your computer is a proxy requesting on behalf of another client. This results in better privacy online due to a less consistent IP being supplied to 3rd parties.
Comments and Reviews
Open source extension that blocks many forms of browser fingerprinting. Most relevant service for fingerprint spoofing on this list.
Agree, its one of the best extension, but OpenSource with Copyright? hmmm
