5 Firefox extensions to protect your privacy
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In the wake of the Cambridge Analytica story, I took a hard look at how far I had let Facebook penetrate my online presence. As I'm generally concerned about single points of failure (or compromise), I am not one to use social logins. I use a password manager and create unique logins for every site (and you should, too).
|
||||
|
||||
What I was most perturbed about was the pervasive intrusion Facebook was having on my digital life. I uninstalled the Facebook mobile app almost immediately after diving into the Cambridge Analytica story. I also [disconnected all apps, games, and websites][1] from Facebook. Yes, this will change your experience on Facebook, but it will also protect your privacy. As a veteran with friends spread out across the globe, maintaining the social connectivity of Facebook is important to me.
|
||||
|
||||
I went about the task of scrutinizing other services as well. I checked Google, Twitter, GitHub, and more for any unused connected applications. But I know that's not enough. I need my browser to be proactive in preventing behavior that violates my privacy. I began the task of figuring out how best to do that. Sure, I can lock down a browser, but I need to make the sites and tools I use work while trying to keep them from leaking data.
|
||||
|
||||
Following are five tools that will protect your privacy while using your browser. The first three extensions are available for Firefox and Chrome, while the latter two are only available for Firefox.
|
||||
|
||||
### Privacy Badger
|
||||
|
||||
[Privacy Badger][2] has been my go-to extension for quite some time. Do other content or ad blockers do a better job? Maybe. The problem with a lot of content blockers is that they are "pay for play." Meaning they have "partners" that get whitelisted for a fee. That is the antithesis of why content blockers exist. Privacy Badger is made by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), a nonprofit entity with a donation-based business model. Privacy Badger promises to learn from your browsing habits and requires minimal tuning. For example, I have only had to whitelist a handful of sites. Privacy Badger also allows granular controls of exactly which trackers are enabled on what sites. It's my #1, must-install extension, no matter the browser.
|
||||
|
||||
### DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials
|
||||
|
||||
The search engine DuckDuckGo has typically been privacy-conscious. [DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials][3] works across major mobile devices and browsers. It's unique in the sense that it grades sites based on the settings you give them. For example, Facebook gets a D, even with Privacy Protection enabled. Meanwhile, [chrisshort.net][4] gets a B with Privacy Protection enabled and a C with it disabled. If you're not keen on EFF or Privacy Badger for whatever reason, I would recommend DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials (choose one, not both, as they essentially do the same thing).
|
||||
|
||||
### HTTPS Everywhere
|
||||
|
||||
[HTTPS Everywhere][5] is another extension from the EFF. According to HTTPS Everywhere, "Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site. The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by using clever technology to rewrite requests to these sites to HTTPS." While a lot of sites and browsers are getting better about implementing HTTPS, there are a lot of sites that still need help. HTTPS Everywhere will try its best to make sure your traffic is encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
### NoScript Security Suite
|
||||
|
||||
[NoScript Security Suite][6] is not for the faint of heart. While the Firefox-only extension "allows JavaScript, Java, Flash, and other plugins to be executed only by trusted websites of your choice," it doesn't do a great job at figuring out what your choices are. But, make no mistake, a surefire way to prevent leaking data is not executing code that could leak it. NoScript enables that via its "whitelist-based preemptive script blocking." This means you will need to build the whitelist as you go for sites not already on it. Note that NoScript is only available for Firefox.
|
||||
|
||||
### Facebook Container
|
||||
|
||||
[Facebook Container][7] makes Firefox the only browser where I will use Facebook. "Facebook Container works by isolating your Facebook identity into a separate container that makes it harder for Facebook to track your visits to other websites with third-party cookies." This means Facebook cannot snoop on activity happening elsewhere in your browser. Suddenly those creepy ads will stop appearing so frequently (assuming you uninstalled the Facebook app from your mobile devices). Using Facebook in an isolated space will prevent any additional collection of data. Remember, you've given Facebook data already, and Facebook Container can't prevent that data from being shared.
|
||||
|
||||
These are my go-to extensions for browser privacy. What are yours? Please share them in the comments.

5 个保护你隐私的 Firefox 扩展
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
在剑桥分析公司这件事后，我仔细研究了我让 Facebook 渗透到我的网络生活的程度。由于我一般担心单点故障，我不是一个使用社交登录的人。我使用密码管理器为每个站点创建唯一的登录（你也应该这样做）。
|
||||
|
||||
我最担心的 Facebook 对我的数字生活的普遍侵扰。在深入了解剑桥分析公司这件事后，我几乎立即卸载了 Facebook 的移动程序。我还从 Facebook [取消连接了所有应用、游戏和网站][1]。是的，这将改变你在 Facebook 上的体验，但它也将保护您的隐私。作为一名有遍布全球朋友的人，保持 Facebook 的社交连接对我来说非常重要。
|
||||
|
||||
我还仔细审查了其他服务。我检查了 Google、Twitter、GitHub 以及任何未使用的连接应用。但我知道这还不够。我需要我的浏览器主动防止侵犯我隐私的行为。我开始研究如何做到最好。当然，我可以锁定浏览器，但是我需要使我用的网站和工具正常使用，同时试图防止它们泄露数据。
|
||||
|
||||
以下是五种可在使用浏览器时保护你隐私的工具。前三个扩展可用于 Firefox 和 Chrome，而后两个仅适用于 Firefox。
|
||||
|
||||
### Privacy Badger
|
||||
|
||||
我已经使用 [Privacy Badger][2] 有一段时间了。其他内容或广告拦截器做得更好吗？也许。很多内容拦截器的问题在于它们“付费显示”。这意味着他们有收费的“合作伙伴”白名单。这就站在了为什么存在内容拦截器的对立面。Privacy Badger 是由电子前沿基金会 （EFF） 制作的，这是一家以捐赠为基础的商业模式的非营利实体。Privacy Badger 承诺从你的浏览习惯中学习，并且很少需要调整。例如，我只需将一些网站列入白名单。Privacy Badger 允许精确控制在哪些站点上启用哪些跟踪器。这是我的第一个无论在哪个浏览器必须安装的扩展。
|
||||
|
||||
### DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials
|
||||
|
||||
搜索引擎 DuckDuckGo 通常有隐私意识。[DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials][3] 适用于主流的移动设备和浏览器。它的独特之处在于它根据你提供的设置对网站进行评分。例如，即使启用了隐私保护，Facebook 也会获得 D。同时，[chrisshort.net][4] 在启用隐私保护时获得 B 和禁用时获得 C。如果你因任何原因不喜欢于 EFF 或 Privacy Badger，我会推荐 DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials（选择一个，而不是两个，因为它们基本上做同样的事情）。
|
||||
|
||||
### HTTPS Everywhere
|
||||
|
||||
[HTTPS Everywhere][5] 是 EFF 的另一个扩展。根据 HTTPS Everywhere 的说法，“网络上的许多网站都通过 HTTPS 提供一些有限的加密支持，但使它难以使用。例如，它们可能默认为未加密的 HTTP 或在加密的页面里面使用返回到未加密站点的链接。HTTPS Everywhere 扩展通过使用聪明的技术将对这些站点的请求重写为 HTTPS 来解决这些问题。“虽然许多网站和浏览器在实施 HTTPS 方面越来越好，但仍有很多网站仍需要帮助。HTTPS Everywhere 将尽力确保你的流量已加密。
|
||||
|
||||
### NoScript Security Suite
|
||||
|
||||
[NoScript Security Suite][6] 不适合胆小的人。虽然这个 Firefox 独有扩展“允许 JavaScript、Java、Flash 和其他插件只能由你选择的受信任网站执行”，但它并不能很好地确定你的选择。但是，毫无疑问，防止泄漏数据的可靠方法是不执行可能会泄露数据的代码。NoScript 通过其“基于白名单的抢占式脚本阻止”实现了这一点。这意味着你需要为尚未加入白名单的网站构建白名单。请注意，NoScript 仅适用于 Firefox。
|
||||
|
||||
### Facebook Container
|
||||
|
||||
Facebook Container][7] 使 Firefox 成为我在使用 Facebook 时的唯一浏览器。 “Facebook Container 的工作原理是将你的 Facebook 身份隔离到一个单独的容器中，这使得 Facebook 更难以使用第三方 Cookie 跟踪你访问其他网站。” 这意味着 Facebook 无法窥探浏览器中其他地方发生的活动。 突然间，这些令人毛骨悚然的广告将停止频繁出现（假设你在移动设备上卸载了 Facebook 应用）。 在隔离的空间中使用 Facebook 将阻止任何额外的数据收集。 请记住，你已经提供了 Facebook 数据，而 Facebook Container 无法阻止这些数据被共享。
|
||||
|
||||
这些是我浏览器隐私的首选扩展。 你的是什么？ 请在评论中分享。
