- Rated 3 out of 5by RYX, 2 days agoThe fingerprint protection this offers is comprehensive and is the only one that I have encountered that protects against the "Creepjs" fingerprinter.
I have tested it against multiple other sites like browserleaks and fingerprint/demo.
HOWEVER, about half the internet does not work with this extension because CloudFlare blocks you with a message "This Browser Is Out of Date" which makes you turn off the extension. If you can fix that issue, I'll mark this to 5 stars. - Rated 2 out of 5by BaraShiro, 2 months agoHad to disable as it allocates way to much memory, sometimes > 20Gb. Hopefully this will be fixed in a future update.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Adrian F., 3 months agoI had to disable this after the upgrade to Firefox 125.0.1 because it caused very high CPU (100%) and RAM (20G+) usage for multiple hours, without end. I used about:memory to discover that this was the culprit. After I disabled JShelter, the CPU usage and RAM dropped.
- Rated 4 out of 5by ti-ap, 5 months agoA great tool that everyone should be using, even if it's not perfect. I recommend it to anyone that will listen. On rare occasions some sites will break because they're using a really aggressive captcha or spam detection platform. Lowering the settings on JShelter and refreshing fixes this. I also disagree that notifications should be shown by default, if at all. Every site is using fingerprinting of some sort nowadays, so you just get a notification every time you go to a site and the notifications become noise.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Viking Helmet, a year agoAs much as I appreciate the concept behind this and would like to give it a higher rating, it breaks too many websites and virtually anything that uses CAPTCHA. I'll continue to keep it around, but some sites will flat-out ignore your request and others will fail to verify your humanity while it's enabled.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15140005, 3 years agoI try to keep as much JS disabled as possible, but sometimes that is not an option. This extension provides extra protection when you must have JS enabled.
Level 3 protection breaks too many websites. Stick with the default (Level 2) and there shouldn't be too many problems.
