Privacy Browser has a fifth blocklist that blocks all third-party requests. A request is only considered third-party if the base domain of the request is different than the base domain of the URL. +

Privacy Browser has two additional blocklists, + one called UltraPrivacy that blocks trackers that EasyPrivacy allows, + and the other that blocks all third-party requests. + A request is only considered third-party if the base domain of the request is different than the base domain of the URL. For example, if www.website.com loads a picture from images.website.com, this is not blocked as a third-party request because they both share the same base domain of website.com. Blocking all third-party requests increases privacy, but this blocklist is disabled by default because it breaks a large number of websites.
