- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18383988, 13 days agoOverall works well BUT, when protecting Navigator (choosing a different OS or browser, any of the 2) it is caught by https://iphey.com/
Developer response
posted 6 days agoNavigator protection is always tricky and you cannot hide it completely. But if I choose a different OS it does not get caught by this page. Maybe there is something additional that causes that in your setup. Developer response
posted 6 days agoPlease open an issue at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues with your details. This should not happen and I do not see a massive memory consumption.- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18252931, a month ago

posted a month agoPlease revert to version 1.9 - version 1.10.1 is in the works.
See https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/699 and https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/700 for the progress of the solution.- Rated 5 out of 5by Tiger, 2 months ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by emotwink, 2 months agoThis particular extension draws too much power from my laptop. Otherwise it is working incredibly well.

- Rated 4 out of 5by snadge, 3 months agonot perfect, but it helps, especially if it is used with other addons, it still doesn't randomize your fingerprint like BRAVE does, only BRAVE gets 3 yes's on EFF's 'cover your tracks' (Ads, Trackers, Fingerprints), or, this addon, with Ublock Origin, Privacy Badger, Local CDN and NoScript (is what I use on Librewolf) gets you all 3 yes's on EFF (1 in 900, so 'common as muck' fingerprint, and unable to track & trace through fingerprinting)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Júlio C. Oliveira, 6 months agoOn coveryourtracks.eff.org shows "Your browser has a unique fingerprint" with a red line under it, And on the section of hash it shows "randomized by first party domain", So I guess it is working some way.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Nibinaear, 6 months agoCaused massive slow down when using ebay and other websites. Firefox identified it as causing slow down, task manager showed as 30% cpu usage for FF.

posted 6 months agoThere is little I can do about the problem with eBay. Whitelisting the DOMRect-API helps:

https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/563
That's why it's whitelisted in the convenience preset. - Rated 5 out of 5by Anonymous, 7 months ago
