websites have increasingly begun to rely much more on large thirdparties for content delivery. canceling requests for ads or trackers is usually without issue, however blocking actual content, not unexpectedly, breaks pages. the aim of this addon is to cutout the middleman by providing lightning speed delivery of local (bundled) files to improve online privacy.
• protects privacy by evading large delivery networks that claim to offer free services. • complements regular blockers such as ublock origin (recommended), adblock plus, et al. • works directly out of the box; absolutely no prior configuration required.
decentraleyes is no silver bullet, but it does prevent a lot of websites from making you send these kinds of requests. ultimately, you can make decentraleyes block requests for missing cdn resources, too.
