====================================
Trace was made in my spare time as an extension to stop online tracking and give the user more control over browser features which may have been hard to find, or in other cases enabled with no option to disable. There is no team of developers behind Trace, I wrote it by myself and so you can be sure that there is no evil corporation behind it trying to get your data.

next level privacy here, touches almost all the fingerprint issues in 1 extension!
РАБОТАЕТ ОТЛИЧНО ЕСЛИ РУКИ ПРЯМЫЕ -КАК НАСТРОИТЬ СМОТРИМ

Please add domain by options like umatrix or script safe for protection because solo configuration sometimes broke webpages
Doesnt work on any website I tried “no header protections” ahaha while CanvasBlocker and CyDec find many requests !
Maybe not Brave compatible ? CyDec works so… :/
Ex : nothing detected on https://fingerprintjs.com/demo
Chromium 86.0.4240.183
Dude, I really have no idea how you did the best anti-tracking extension in the whole chromium store alone! But this is unrealistically cool! I hope you have time to support it further. I will definitely buy a premium as soon as this whole story with the virus ends. 🙂
I have to say, while I’m not the biggest fan of the UI (it’s quite a bit better when changed to the top layout with premium though), this extension is insanely powerful, and by far the best option among privacy possum, and privacy badger, it takes time to setup properly so it abides by captcha guidelines and doesn’t break pages, but once it’s setup properly it’s fantastic and ridiculously efficient. It negates the need for some extensions I used to use like ping blocker.
If I had to give some critiques, I’ll have to say that the canvas protection on chrome is not good and there are far better alternatives (it works a lot better on Firefox, seems to function differently), and that the rel=noopener feature literally doesn’t work (on both FF and Chrome), despite the criticisms, it’s a 10/10 in my book, I hope that it gets long term support.
i like it it let me know that someone was trying to finger p me it works good
It’s really good. 5 stars without hesitation.
Small request: Language Spoofing and Font Fingerprint Protection
Pros:
– client rect, webgl, canvas, and other randomizations protections work
– unlike CyDec, the random output is clean and reasonable (no meaningless gibberish)
– the developer provides clear settings description and excellent learning resources
– the code is open sourc eon github
– there are a lot of options
Cons:
– the github repo is not yet open to contributors
– some randomizations renew on every request (looks suspicious): an option to randomize only on new session would be great
– audio buffer copyFromChannel does not appear to work and audio buffer getDataChannel is not protected
– like many other fingerprint extensions, the code itself can be fingerprinted and there are no protections in place. Enter this in the console to view the code fingerprint:
HTMLCanvasElement.prototype.toDataURL.toString()
CanvasRenderingContext2D.prototype.getImageData.toString()

Love it.
Some sites have issues with the plugin. For example,
*docs.google.com* – must have getClientRects Protection disabled or the sheets will return “Something Went Wrong – Refresh. Unable to Load File: try to load it again or send an error report” error. Disabling getClientRects Protection for this will fix the issue.
Very useful
I was setting up a new chromium based browser that would not stop leaking all my devices (tested on http://www.deviceinfo.me), this extension was the only one that managed to stop it on that particular browser.
Very nice.Thank you
Everyone should have it
Just one comment… simply excellent. = 5 stars
good exetnesion ..help me so lot.
good
Everything is super. I would also like the spoofing of the language, time zone and geolocation.
doesn`t work in chrome,edge dev and firefox as well.
Mouais Bof…un de plus..;qui fait comme les autres…et qui vous trace aussi !
Really great work, both on the extension itself, and the way the developer is so responsive to comments. I’ve installed it on both Chrome and Firefox. Congratulations!
Really good extension – works well. If there any issues, they are resolved quickly.
You did a great job!
It’s working like a charm
It did not work for me. Even though I set the strength as high as possible, when I tested in Panopticlick it said:
Is your browser blocking tracking ads? PARTIAL
Is your browser blocking invisible trackers? PARTIAL
