Review by Dave
Rated 1 out of 5
by Dave, a year agoThis used to be a great extension, but it has been abandoned and no longer actually does anything useful in 2024, since it can only serve outdated versions of libraries that haven't been used in modern websites for many years. (I'm a web developer, so I know of what I speak).

- Rated 5 out of 5by adamhybel, 4 months agoDecentraleyes is a unique and powerful privacy-enhancing extension that smartly protects you from tracking via large Content Delivery Networks (CDNs).
- Stops CDN Tracking: Prevents tracking by major CDNs (like Google Hosted Libraries, Microsoft Ajax CDN, etc.) that often log your visits when websites request common resources (like fonts or JavaScript libraries) from them.
- Serves Common Libraries Locally: Instead of fetching these standard web resources from external CDNs, Decentraleyes instantly provides them from its own local storage, cutting out the third-party request entirely.
- Enhanced Privacy: Significantly reduces your digital footprint by eliminating unnecessary connections to potentially tracking servers, complementing your existing ad/content blockers.
- Improves Speed (Potentially): By serving resources locally, it can sometimes lead to faster page loads, as it avoids network latency for these common files.
- Lightweight & Transparent: Like uBlock Origin, it's designed to be efficient and operates seamlessly in the background. It's free, open-source, and trustworthy.
- Set and Forget: Simply install it, and it works automatically. No configuration is needed for excellent baseline protection.
That's it! Decentraleyes adds a crucial layer of privacy protection that many users overlook. It works perfectly alongside tools like uBlock Origin. A must-have for anyone serious about reducing online tracking. Huge thanks to the developers for this clever and indispensable tool. Highly recommended! - Rated 5 out of 5by woam, 4 months ago
