From cooperq at eff.org Mon Dec 1 12:29:01 2014 From: cooperq at eff.org (Cooper Quintin) Date: Mon, 01 Dec 2014 12:29:01 -0800 Subject: [PrivacyBadger] ref google chrome code added to my webpages In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <547CCF8D.20209@eff.org> The malware link you are seeing here is actually unrelated to Privacy Badger. The CSS file is coming from privacy badger (it's the file that privacy badger uses to replace Facebook like buttons. It gets injected into all pages.) However, Privacy Badger is not inserting the other two javascript links, those are being created by something else. This is the reason why when you uninstalled privacy badger it removed the one link but not the other two. In short, Privacy Badger is not the culprit here, instead it sounds like you have a malware problem. Since this is happening only in chrome, and on multiple operating systems there may be some malware on your server or you may be including a malicious advertisement inadvertently. You should work with your hosting provider to solve this problem. Also make sure you disable any other addons that you have running in chrome, and maybe even reinstall it. Good Luck! - Cooper On 11/29/2014 11:19 AM, John Owen-Jones wrote: > with reference to my previous post > > by uninstalling privacy badger i still have added javascript in my pages > > but less now is > > > > > just youradexchange.com and this strange app.js > > regards > > john > > > _______________________________________________ > PrivacyBadger mailing list > PrivacyBadger at eff.org > https://lists.eff.org/mailman/listinfo/privacybadger > From cooperq at eff.org Wed Dec 3 15:10:14 2014 From: cooperq at eff.org (Cooper Quintin) Date: Wed, 03 Dec 2014 15:10:14 -0800 Subject: [PrivacyBadger] Chrome browser automation for privacy badger enhancement In-Reply-To: References: <20141110223747.GU27318@eff.org> <20141111025340.GI27318@eff.org> <20141124015004.GW22175@eff.org> <20141124044120.GY22175@eff.org> <54738661.30005@eff.org> Message-ID: <547F9856.4050302@eff.org> Great! I will take a look at whats up there so far (with the understanding that it's a WIP). I'm not suprised selenium doesn't have window/tab stuff. It also didn't have any way to use the same browser profile more than once until a couple of days ago. Now you can tell it not to delete the temporary browser profile that it creates, but only if you are using firefox. And only in the .net selenium library so far... - Cooper On 12/03/2014 02:51 PM, Alexei Miagkov wrote: > Hey everybody! > > Here's the WIP Chameleon automation > repo: https://github.com/ghostwords/chameleon-crawler.

For example, an ad-supported original content site can benefit by making it harder to track its valuable audience to less expensive sites. For most users on most browsers, though, third-party tracking is hard to spot. Sites can help with a little bit of third-party JavaScript. Experiment with a tracking warning system: http://ad.aloodo.com/ The general idea is: add an iframe on the page and try a tracking cookie within the iframe. If site-to-site tracking succeeds, send a message to the containing page, which can put up a notification, or implement a lightweight, easy to bypass, "reverse tracking wall" on a page (hide content or redirect if tracking has succeded). Comments, suggestions, pull requests welcome. -- Don Marti http://zgp.org/~dmarti/ dmarti at zgp.org From cooperq at eff.org Tue Dec 16 18:29:24 2014 From: cooperq at eff.org (Cooper Quintin) Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2014 18:29:24 -0800 Subject: [PrivacyBadger] Privacy Badger 0.2.4 has been released!

This release doesn't have an associated chrome release since the fixes to firefox were all fixes that are already in the chrome version. This brings firefox up to feature parity with the chrome version.
