Help EFF test Privacy Badger, our new browser extension for privacy
I wish I had EFF's clout behind my work too[1]. In the last few months, I have been <i>completely</i> dedicated to write an extension which completely informs the user about what a web page does, and gives the user full control over what web sites do in his/her browser.<p>Spent hours after hours at not only making it work, but also making it <i>work efficiently</i> (wrote custom ABP engine from scratch which doesn't suffer the real one's abuse of memory/CPU), and yet barely anyone is noticing it.<p>EFF is also one of the recipient I suggest for people who really want to donate something for my work.<p>In any case, an important warning concerning any extension which modifies HTTP headers on Chromium-based browsers: only <i>one</i> extension is allowed to modify the HTTP headers[2], and since EFF's badger does modify outbound request headers, it will break any previously installed extension which relies on also modifying these headers to work properly.<p>This means mine[1] is incompatible, one of the two extensions won't be able to do what it says it does. This applies for any other extension modifying outbound HTTP headers.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard#http-switchboard-for-chromium" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard#http-switchboard-...</a><p>[2] <a href="https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/webRequest#implementation" rel="nofollow">https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/webRequest#implement...</a>
