Software Alternatives & Reviews

Track This by Firefox AdNauseam Czkawka Temporary Containers
  1. We open 100 tabs to make trackers think you're someone else
    Feels kind of sub-optimal to use trackthis.link, that website has Google Analytics.

  2. A browser extension that clicks on every blocked ad to fight advertising surveillance.
    I used to use a data poisoning plugin called ad nauseum. It's the easiest way to poison trackers, but it didn't really catch much with the other stuff I have set up, so I eventually disabled it.

  3. Multi functional app to find duplicates, empty folders, similar images etc.
    If you're really interested in how the images are processed in the FFT step you can look at this software for an example. https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka It's a duplicate file finder that supports similar videos and images. This means that it can detect different quality levels of the same photo or video. To do this is generates a match score based on the similarities of the FFT processed images. FFT is like a way to summarize data by rounding off the noise.

  4. 4
    Image cloaking for personal privacy
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    From u/signal-insect's comment, it was probably Fawkes.

  5. foto forensics, photo forensics, error level analysis
    There are tricks we can do to detect the small variations that Fawkes makes but it becomes much harder when only 1 copy of the photo exists. Check this out https://fotoforensics.com.

  6. An anti-malware Web browser extension to mitigate potential threats from JavaScript, including fingerprinting, tracking, and data collection!
    JShelter modifies your JavaScript data requests.

  7. Firefox Add-on that lets you open automatically managed disposable containers
    My current set up is firefox containers, with switch container, and temporary contaners. These containers let me isolate sites, sot hey can't see my cookies from other sites, and things like that. It's like running different sites in different virtual machines. It's also nice to be able to right click > select reddit throwaway account A or main account B or whatever you call your accounts, and you can switch reddit accounts without signing out and in. You can even keep two accounts open simultaneously on two different tabs.
