Based on Adblock Plus. * AboutIceCat Adds a custom "about:icecat" homepage with links to information about the free software and privacy features in IceCat, and check-boxes to enable and disable the ones more prone to break websites. * HTML5-video-everywhere Uses the native video player to play embedded videos from different sources * Fingerprinting countermeasures: Fingerprinting is a series of techniques allowing to uniquely identify a browser based on specific characteristics of that particular instance (like what fonts are available in that machine). Unlike cookies the user cannot opt-out of being tracked this way, so the browser has to avoid giving away that kind of hints. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - HTTPS Everywhere updated to 2018.1.11 - "goteo.org payments with free JS" updated to 1.1 - "LibreJS compatible Pay.gov" updated to 1.3 - "Reveal hidden HTML" updated to 1.6 - Enabled WebRTC, but prevent leaking the LAN ip -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
