hey

run firefox?

hit about:config
search for 'telemetry'

disable aaaaaaaaaallll that shit

[nf3xn@mastodon.social]

@Viss it's already all off by default right? moz is ur fren riiight?

[ml@social.mitexleo.one]

@Viss They should not be enabled in the first place.

[tim_lavoie@cosocial.ca]

@Viss JFC, there's a ton of shit in there. Makes me think that any time I run FF, I should do it while proxied through Burp.

Not exactly coercing me back from Vivaldi (but I did nuke all that while I was in there).

[viss@mastodon.social]

@tim_lavoie vivaldi is nice but its still got some stuff that carries over from chrome which i hate - like how it supports proxies, and how horizontal scrolling if you have a shitload of tabs is a fucking nightmare

[tim_lavoie@cosocial.ca]

@Viss I'm feeling like we should just get Usenet back on track, so we can come up with newsgroups named alt.snoopy-malware.die.die.die

[tim_lavoie@cosocial.ca]

@Viss True, and I really love the temporary containers option on Firefox, which along with keeping uBo would be the main drivers to switch back. It's feeling like a harder sell all the time though.

[ghostsarespooky@infosec.exchange]

@Viss Yeah. Send those DNS requests to the void, too. (and divviup[.]org too)

[tim_lavoie@cosocial.ca]

@LukefromDC @Viss Yeah, that's pretty much what I see Vivaldi doing for Chrome / Chromium as well.

[tim_lavoie@cosocial.ca]

@LukefromDC @Viss By the way, I just reinstalled #librewolf, and a number of about:config items with "telemetry" in the name are set to "true".

[da_667@infosec.exchange]

@Viss ^{Use Librewolf.}

C'mon... do it...

ya know ya want to

[viss@mastodon.social]

@da_667 apparently librewolf has all those on by default too

[da_667@infosec.exchange]

@Viss lotta the ai shit is stripped out by default. but something fun I learned is the anti-fingerprinting is turned on by default, and it really fucks with any.run, and proxmox web VNC sessions.

[viq@social.hackerspace.pl]

@da_667 @Viss waterfox is also nice, and can have tabs on the side as a tree!

[viss@mastodon.social]

@viq @da_667 im currently fidgeting with vivaldi, but since its just skinned chrome, it does a bunch of dumb shit i hate, like how chrome handles proxies. also scrolling horizontally across my embarassing number of tabs is massively painful and a huge ui problem, so i bailed

[fritzadalis@infosec.exchange]

@da_667 @Viss
Yeah, in Proxmox the shift key doesn't work. Wtf.

You can allow it by site or domain, though.

[da_667@infosec.exchange]

@FritzAdalis @Viss any.run just refuses to load with it enabled for that domain.

[viq@social.hackerspace.pl]

@Viss @da_667 in Vivaldi you can also put tabs on the side of window

[viss@mastodon.social]

@bryce yeah librewolf has all these on by default as well

[bryce@mastodon.brycedixon.dev]

@Viss comment retracted - I wasn't adding anything to the conversation.
