- Rated 5 out of 5by RDT1, 5 years agoThe perfect add on to stop HTML5 Canvas Fingerprinting. Throwing on block all excluding whitelist shows just how many sites become unusable with their tracking. Even trusted sites like Duckduckgo.com, reddit.com etc.. keep up the good work!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Ano Nymous, 5 years agoAn sich funktioniert das AddOn sauber.
Ein Stern abzug gibt es für das etwas fummlige Menü und es bremmst den Browser merkbar aus.
Selbst beim Browser-Start braucht es ein paar Sekunden, bis es 100% läuft. - Rated 2 out of 5by Craig, 5 years ago

posted 5 years agoThe language of the addon is controlled by Firefox and should be the same like the other UI of Firefox (if CB is translated to that language). If this does not work properly pleas comment at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/479 with the language your Firefox is and the language that is displayed instead.- Rated 5 out of 5by Cercion, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by The GodFather, 5 years agoThis is a very helpful extension. Could you add a whitelist button directly in the app menu ?
Developer response
posted 5 years agoThere is a whitelist button in the "fingerprint" menu. In https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/330 is a screenshot of how to find it. Developer response
posted 5 years agoYes - the people translating on https://crowdin.com/project/canvasblocker are very helpful. Thanks to you all.- Rated 5 out of 5by quonzo, 5 years agoSpoof Timezone, spoof WebRTC and CanvasBlocker will be the best antidetect extension ever!
Developer response
posted 5 years agoSpoofing the timezone is not trivial (see https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/464). WebRTC might be worth a look. Please open an request at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues - Rated 5 out of 5by mdaiurrto, 5 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14428109, 5 years agoGreat extension!
I would like to submit a suggestion, would it be possible to allow shortcut key to duplicate a tab in another profile?Developer response
posted 5 years agoI'm not sure what you mean by "in another profile". Please open an issue at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues with an exact description of your suggestion/request. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15311590, 5 years agoThe most reliable canvas fingerprinting blocker available still even after years, blocks types HTML5 and ClientRect! Great job!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Maleficient, 5 years agoMister Korbinian Kapsner, hello,
Here is the French translation of CanvaBlocker ; in uft8 with WinMerge ; I hope there is no problem with the accents used in the French language.
It was long and very difficult, because you don't have to master a language, but computer science.
Computer dictionaries are not pedagogical ; the definitions are often worse than the word itself.
Sorry, for taking so long to finish the full translation.
Link valid for 30 days ; click on the French words :

posted 5 years agoThank you for your contribution. I will check the file and include it. - Rated 2 out of 5by Harry Haller, 5 years agoUnfortunately, after installing CanvasBlocker in FF 74.0 (64-Bit), Twitter doesn't work any more. Maybe, there would be a setting to prevent this, but sorry, this should be set by default, since Twitter is a very common network. Also other common sites like translate.google.com don't work any more.
Developer response
posted 5 years agoBoth sites work fine for me with default settings. Please open an issue at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues with all your details so we can sort this problem out.
There we can communication better and you can track the progress of your problem. - Rated 4 out of 5by Dewnan, 5 years agoI have a conflict between Privacy Badger and CanvasBlocker when starting FF or restarting with my restart_firefox.uc.js script, it stops at loading ex: google.com (home page), I press F5 then it loads.
Disabling Privacy Badger on google solves it... anyone else have this problem?Developer response
posted 5 years agoThis kind of behaviour was already seen but could not be reproduced in FF 73. Please add your system information at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/388. This issue is currently closed but can be reopened. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13230603, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by surrealisme, 5 years agoHello, interested in the check mark "Share persistent randomness between domains", if you remove it, I realized that each domain will have different data, if you turn it on, a warning that there will be a leak, the question arose, what can domain x request from domain y? and what result will it get if this checkbox is disabled and the request is received
Developer response
posted 5 years agoYou can read the background of this flag in https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/290
To be short: this flag makes you 100% unique and trackable across all domains. The use case for this was not to prevent fingerprinting but to disguise. Not quite the main focus of CanvasBlocker but it seemed useful for some folks.
In general I highly discourage you to from using this flag unless you clearly understand it and it suits your need. If you use it you have to reset your persistent random number generator quite frequently.
PS: domain x cannot request any additional data from domain y but the faking will add the same "randomness" to the API readouts and this information can be used to be tracked.
