Resource Requests

+ +

When a URL is loaded, it typically makes a number of resource requests for CCS, JavaScript, image, and other files. Details about these requests can be viewed in the Requests activity. + The navigation drawer has a link to the Requests activity and also shows how many requests were blocked. Tapping on a request displays details about why it was allowed or blocked.

+ +

+ +

Privacy Browser includes four common blocklists based on the Adblock syntax: + EasyList, EasyPrivacy, Fanboy’s Annoyance List, and Fanboy’s Social Blocking List. + These blocklists are processed by Privacy Browser into the following 22 sublists, which check resource requests in the order listed.

+ +

  2. Final Whitelist

Initial lists check against the beginning of the URL. Final lists check against the end of the URL. Domain lists only check against certain domains. + Third-party lists only apply if the root domain of the request is different than the root domain of the main URL. + Regular expression lists follow the regular expression syntax. Each sublist item has one or more entry. + In the case of domain sublists, the resource request is only checked against the item if the first entry matches the domain of the main URL.

+ +

Because of limitations in Android’s WebView, and to speed up processing of requests, Privacy Browser implements a simplified interpretation of the Adblock syntax. + This can sometimes lead to false positives, where resources are allowed or blocked in ways that weren’t intended by the original entry. + A more detailed description of how the blocklist entries are processed is available at stoutner.com.

+ +

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.
