Why do retards on /g/ use 50 privacy addons like 'smart referrer, noscript, user agent spoofer, etc', when you can just use uMatrix?


Iridium browser + uMatrix + 90k line hosts file master race reporting in.

Your epeen sounds huge bro tell me all about it

>>55238549
Why would a hosts file ever need to be that big
>>
>>55238549

Having such a large hosts file negatively affects a whole bunch of things, why do that when uMatrix already has host lists built into it. So the only retard I see is you OP.
Also Iridium Browser is a botnet, check out some topics on HN with the proof.

How often do you audit or prune that hosts file, and is it under version control?

chromium + ublock with fanboy's ultimate master race

ublock was owned by an american company...
seriously just don't use internet browser...

>>55238586
probably redirecting all ads server to localhost
>>
>>55238549
Ungoogled Chromium with uBlock Origin + uMatrix is pretty nice too. If only Self-Destructing Cookies and CanvasBlocker were ported to Chromium, though.

protip: don't redirect to localhost, then you have to wait for a timeout.

instead, redirect to 0.0.0.0, it's a purely invalid address and most kernels won't even try to connect.

I do have to agree, btw. DNS-level blocking is the way to go.

My mom was not smart enough to realize when her ad-blocker was breaking websites, so I put in a router at my folks place with openbsd and I use unbound with dnscrypt, and there's a script floating around github that will take the someonewhocares list and turn it into unbound local-data entries.

So now my mom gets ad-blocking without website breakage. Win-win.

Use dnsmasq instead of hosts.

Search on github for FreeContributor.

>hosts file negative....
I haven't noticed a decrease in performance

umatrix is so I can block css from websites except the one im visiting, scripts from all websites, cookies from all websites except the one im visiting, block hyperlink auditing. use strict https, and spoof http referrer.

about iridium being botnet:
https://github.com/iridium-browser/iridium-browser/issues/55 read this
>>
>>55241986
how does that work

do you have to make your own dns server?
>>
>>55242153

Yes. But that's really easy. FreeContributor installs/download/parse the filters for you.

All three of those addons do different things and only noscript is covered by uMatrix.

So their solution was to not call iridium but to call google
