Browser Add-ons/Extensions

I use all of these extensions, but strongly suggest the 'favorite extensions' if you are going to browse archived websites a lot.

All of these extensions will work on major browsers, and I personally prefer Waterfox to Firefox, and these extensions will work fine for Waterfox. You can read more about privacy-oriented browsers here: https://www.privacytools.io/browsers/

Favorite Extensions:

uBlock Origin https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/ Helps reduce tracking, prevelance of ads, blocks some malware, etc.

Privacy Badger (via the EFF) https://privacybadger.org/ Helps block ads and prevent tracking.

More Helpful Extensions:

CanvasBlocker https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker Helps prevent fingerprinting.

Decentraleyes https://decentraleyes.org/ Helps protect against tracking through "free", centralized, content delivery.

HTTPS Everywhere (via the EFF) https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere Exactly what is says. Forces the secure hypertext protocol for all web sites.

Cookie Autodelete https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/ Again, exactly what it is says it does.

Snowflake (via the TOR Project) https://snowflake.torproject.org/ Helps ensure your browsing session is somewhat more private.

NoScript https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript/ Can be annoying to browse with as it will identify some legitimate forms of code as bad, but this is a great add-on.

Terms of Service; Didn’t Read https://github.com/tosdr Helps alert you to websites with questionable TOS.
