    DONT use the “I Don’t Care About Cookies” plugin. It was sold to Avast. The same company that stole users information and sold it ON A PRIVACY PRODUCT illegally for years causing them to get sued for 16 million. (slap on the wrist tbh)

      Why would someone use that instead of uBlock origin cookie filter?

      Its really best to keep browser extensions as few as possible for fingerprinting resistance

      To OP/readers you’re OK with extensions this would be a better pick imo (read installation instructions)

        Not using the addon, but I simply didn’t know uBlock can do that.

        No, use consent-o-matic, which is even configurable and thus better in every way.

          You fools. You absolute buffoons. Clearly you should be using the open source, free (beer) web browser I cooked up in my basement

      Oh yeah, I gotta get rid of Avast, it keeps flagging things that straight up aren’t viruses, what’s a good alternative?

        iirc Windows Defender does a decent job. However, if you are a JavaScript developer, try to add node_modules to the exceptions, unless you don’t care much about the performance hit.

        I personally have stopped running antivirus on Windows a couple years ago. Since I run most, if not all, untrusted software in VMs, I didn’t see the point of wasting performance. On the host, I only run Firefox and Steam/Epic games.

        I then moved to Linux and I have 2 GPUs; one for the host and one for VMs with games. But that’s probably a different story.

          ry to add node_modules to the exceptions, unless you don’t care much about the performance hit.

          Does windows defender go crazy constantly scanning the files or something? I have a TON of machines running automated tasks using node and any drop in CPU usage would be much appreciated.
