posted 6 years agoThe same issue is discussed at https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/canvasblocker/reviews/1141570/ and https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/154
In short: it fine to have these sites to report a unique fingerprint as long as the fingerprint changes (which is the case in the default CB settings). You can open up the console (Ctrl + Shift + K) and have a look at the actual fingerprint. There you will see that the protected fingerprints change with each reload.
Regarding support: github is mainly a code managing service (you can look at the complete source code and history of CB there). But it also offers a requirement and bug tracking feature. As I am only one person I have no time to give individual email (or even phone) support. On github some helping angels can support me. Also it provides an overview of already asked questions and open issues so other people with the same issue can see that it is known and/or what the solution is.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Andre Bell, 4 months agoDamages Linkedin, as other comments here and on github have noted. Enable 'Advanced' settings and add Linkedin.com to the whitelist and all is well again. Do NOT alter any other settings unless you want your browser vulnerable to the noted exploit mentioned in the FAQ.

- Rated 1 out of 5by jenustar5, 6 months agothe cloudflare issue reappeared and more. now only works when setting exception in general --> block mode --> challenges.cloudflare.com = block only blacklist
or when disable the addon in all addons menu.
even when disable the addon for the site by addon icon does not work. only rule above.
can this be fixed?? or is the addon become useless if cf updates like this it can then track you?
sorry for review I try github but it does not show the post when log of so shadow ban??
