During my research, I tried to use the vimeo-based videos at removed link If I try to watch them, vimeo asks me to register/login in Attachment : 250601-eblocker-org-vimeo-videos.png Is it intended or maybe it needs some other configuration on TimF-side?

| Linux setup | Relevance | 5 Monaten ago | Julius | eBlocker Open Source Forum |
| | Hi, while setting up my new eBlocker i stumbled about some issues and I suggest to add the following information on the help pages: While the setup for a browser is described the help is missing adding the certificate for the OS itself. Without registering the own eBlocker-certificate you'll maybe end in a system which won't do updates anymore as it won't reach it servers.The solution for Debian, Fedora and Arch is described here -> I confirm it for archlinux. |

I was thinking of using the VirtualBox route but VirtualBox only has builds for x86-64 systems. And the iSO image is only for x86 builds as well.

There are already some projects that deal with this, but they are often complex and require Linux knowledge.

| Redirect internet sites to alternatives with more privacy | Relevance | 4 Jahren ago | TuXXer | Features & Priorities |
| | There are i.e. Firefox extensions like Privacy redirect existing that redirect certain pages to more privacy friendly alternatives. Twitter -> Nitter Youtube -> Invidious Instagram -> Bibliogram Google maps -> Openstreetmap We can also think about redirecting certain search engines to more privacy oriented (i.e. Google -> Ducuduckgo). Some other Privacy boxes already provide this functionality. It would be nice to see that also in eblocker! |

| CDN and privacy | Relevance | 4 Jahren ago | TuXXer | eBlocker Open Source Forum |

During that activity I also found articles speaking about CDN (Coentent Delivery Networks) as a privacy threat due to metadata exchange. Is there any protection against CDN integrated in eblocker standard? (Some CDN protection is visible when Duck Duck Go Tracker Radar is activated!) If there is no CDN threat protection in eblocker standard is there any recommendation to install Decentraleyes or LocalCDN, which are CDN emulators? Thanks for your feedback! |

How reliable is this test? |

| Additional Firefox extension necessary? | Relevance | 4 Jahren ago | TuXXer | eBlocker Open Source Forum |

Furthermore there are recommendations about how to configure Firefox in a way that fingerprinting is getting more difficult (i.e. from www.privacy-handbuch.de). For me the question is what is necessary and what is even creating a conflict? |
