The Tor Browser should ship with a default ad-blocker. You should not approach ad-blockers in the belief that they make you less trackable, instead they should be approached as a means to improve your browsing experience if you (like I do) find ads offensive. If you subscribe to every list in the world, you will still be subject to tracking because blacklisting never works with 100% efficacy. If you were to use Tails' uBlock Origin version, lists and configuration you would appear like a Tails user, which would give you a reasonable anonymity set.Īd-blocking is censorship, you allow third parties to define what you can or cannot see on the web.Īd-blocking does not defeat tracking. Tails ships with uBlock Origin in it's Tor Browser (something that no other answer actually touches on?). Using less common lists or special lists will make you stand out further. An adversary can craft a website to enumerate blocking from common lists to determine which website elements you do or do not load, and thus which lists you subscribe to. Longer version:ĭisabling javascript will not stop it being fingerprintable, an observer can still watch the resources you do or do not load. Tails uses uBlock Origin, if you use the same version, lists and config as Tails you can block most ads and keep a reasonable anonymity set, or you could just use Tails.
