So as the title mentions, I’m wondering how much is too much?
I am currently using Brave with the setting to:
- Aggressively block trackers & ads
- Only connect with HTTPS
- Block fingerprinting
- Block cross-site cookies
In addition to that, I have installed the following extensions:
- uBlock Origin
- Ghostery
- Decentraleyes
- DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials
So my question is: Is this overkill? If so, what should/could be removed that may be redundant? I want as much coverage as possible, but not have things bloated.
uBlock origin + NoScript. Imo.
But uBlock also has javascript blocking functionality, so I’m not sure NoScript is needed
NoScript also prevents clickjacking, redirection attack (if I remember correctly, also I’m not sure that it’s the correct term), and few more things that I can’t remember right now… From what I’ve heard one can replace them both with uMatrix, haven’t tried it though.
Removed by mod
I had no idea, thanks.
Pretty sure uMatrix is integrated into uBlock now (at least 90% of the functionality is)
