- S'ha valorat amb 4 sobre 5per Pixelcode, fa 2 anysStartpage Privacy Protection is obviously based on EFF's Privacy Badger and does an okay job, although it's not as mighty as uBlock Origin, for example.
Though, what I find irritating is that the addon apparently injects additional HTML elements into all websites for unknown reason. Edit: As Startpage said, that's for Escape Route or hiding their own promotional messages on startpage.com, which is fine.Resposta del desenvolupador
s'ha publicat fa un anyThanks for trying our extension! Any HTML you might see is only used for one of two purposes: either to enable the Escape Route feature (Click Esc three times to blur the screen and four times to exit the page you’re on) or for Startpage to determine whether to show or hide promotional messaging about the extension on our homepage. No tracking whatsoever! - S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Derek, fa 2 anys

- S'ha valorat amb 1 sobre 5per Firefox user 14305634, fa 2 anysThis addon states it doesn't use any keyboard shortcuts. However, as long as it is activated, pressing the Escape button three times will blur my current tab and pressing Escape four times will close the current tab and open a new one to startpage.com. This has broken all my trust in startpage's legitimacy, I'll both uninstall this addon as well as change my start page.
/edit in response to the dev: "up front"? I searched for that "feature" back then, but nobody seemed to know anything about it. After your reply, I searched both the addon's mozilla page as well as your homepage for ANY trace of it. Well, yes, you do mention it in one dedicated article (not on the addon's page, not in the features list, nowhere but this article) that I only saw after asking Google about it. Yes, Google.
Also, why is it not possible to delete this "feature"? Can't be too hard to code that in, can it?Resposta del desenvolupador
s'ha publicat fa un anyThanks for your feedback. That’s Escape Route, a privacy feature used to quickly exit any page. We’re up front about it in the description and maintain the same high standards we always have. Sorry to see you go. - S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Firefox user 17483201, fa 2 anys

s'ha publicat fa un anyThanks for choosing Startpage, and welcome! Spreading the word about Startpage and online privacy is the best thing you can do to help us grow. That and not blocking the non-intrusive, privacy-respecting ads on our search results pages ;) - S'ha valorat amb 2 sobre 5per martineau, fa 2 anysThe add-on did not prevent the fingerprinting of my browser when I tested it at https://coveryourtracks.eff.org

s'ha publicat fa un anyThanks for trying our extension. Our extension blocks trackers and cookies, and does not affect your actual browser abilities. And for what it’s worth, the same result occurs with Privacy Badger, which is developed by EFF. It’s not in the scope of either extension.Thanks for trying our extension and for caring about privacy! - S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Wo, fa 2 anys
- S'ha valorat amb 4 sobre 5per Paolo, fa 2 anysGood and extremely worthwhile if you adopt Startpage as your search engine of choice like I have.
The (although limited) tracker blocking is nice, and the page score lets you know what site tries to screw with you, still like it to pair it with Ublock, as that will block what trackers slip away from this.
The standard eye grating light theme search page that it tries to force upon you is the only detracting point of this extension, so I had to install the 3rd party Startpage Search — Dark Theme extension to get the best optimal experience. - S'ha valorat amb 4 sobre 5per mr-scientific, fa 2 anysThis extension is really good, but one feature request. Can you set it so that the search bar uses post instead of get? I typically use the firefox search bar to search for things, so even if the engine tries to use post within itself, the browser's search bar still uses get searches instead of post.

- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Esthirel, fa 2 anysAbsolutley love this extension. It's so clear what it's doing and how to enable and disable certain options. There is no setback when surfing it's only adding pretection and info about your websites.
- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Firefox user 17267262, fa 2 anysBeen a long-time user of Startpage for a long time now, and this extension is awesome! Gives a "privacy score" and keeps reminding me why I use Startpage.
- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Firefox user 17244388, fa 2 anysThis extension is awesome, been using it for a few days now and have blocked hundreds of cookies and trackers, but the Startpage search is the best part as it protects all of my searches
- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per anonymous, fa 2 anysThis add-on is very useful to have an anonymous web browsing.
Firefox itself is an anonymous browser, but with this add-on the tracking blocking is perfect! - S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Default, fa 2 anysIt is like a complete anti-tracking suite with a zero-clicks configuration. Ideal if you need to quickly set up a browser (for instance for someone else in your family) and you don't want to go through all the tracking domains blocking through filters, privacy settings etc. You just install this and it already gives you a good privacy standard level.
- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Nyaa, fa 2 anysThere are people rating this extension low strictly on the basis that they think you should only use uBlock Origin as an extension. Ignore these reviews, this is a great extension that adds to privacy. This extension does more than what uBlock Origin does, uBlock Origin also has features that this extension does not provide. This is not a uBlock Origin clone, it is it's own extension. It is not meant to replace these extensions and the developers actively encourage you to use it alongside it.
This extension sends the do not track and the GPC signal. This is something that uBlock Origin does not do. It also ranks websites privacy giving it a score from 1-5, also a unique feature.
Stop trying to gatekeep privacy please and encourage adoption of new extensions and privacy tools. Locking ourselves to one single tool, even though it helps against browser fingerprinting, is a recipe for disaster. The problem is *not* the tools, it's the lack of good privacy laws. Extensions that increase privacy are a symptom of bad privacy laws, we shouldn't *have* to use any tool in the first place to have privacy. - S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per Umbrado, fa 2 anys

- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per lyle, fa 2 anysAfter researching all the different types of privacy protection extensions, Startpage caught my eye. I'm glad I installed it - it's easy to understand with it's clean and minimal look! A definite eye opener to see how much tracking was done on my computer. Also, don't forget to make Startpage your default search engine (Google results but with privacy)!!
- S'ha valorat amb 5 sobre 5per mevans87, fa 2 anysLove to see how many trackers and cookies are getting blocked on various sites I visit. The privacy report feature that shows the total amount blocked is super cool. I definitely feel a lot safer browsing the web with this installed!
