by Firefox user 12806971, 8 years agoNew features are somewhat confusing for usual users like me. Should I enable transparency blocking?! ot it doesn't matter much?!
Also when updated some options are missing like the "Ignore the most frequent colors".
Also why not to set Random Number to Persistent by default, it will be changed on every browser startup, right?!

posted 8 years agoThe former versions faked the transparency always. But since this channel is treated differently by the browsers I think it is saver to not fake it. It does not affect the security.
Regarding the missing options: only these options are displayed that are useful with the other selected options. The mentioned "ignore the most frequent colors" is only displayed in expert mode and when faking the read API.
For the default random number generator I ask you to open an issue at github. This has to be discussed in more depth. I myself are not sure what the default should be.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 19062474, 12 days agoNo instructions on how to use it. Not intuitive to use. I have not a clue if it is doing anything because of this. I will leave it on incase it is working. It would be better as an app to work all the time my device is on rather than just inside my browser.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12814982, a month agoAn sich ein wirklich klasse AddOn, was Webseiten definitiv zu schaffen macht.
Leider bremmst es den Browser je nach Seite extrem aus.
Gerade Karten-Webseiten wie z.B. Google Maps sind teilweise unbenutzbar, wenn der CanvasBlocker zuschlägt.
Der Blocker von Firefox selbst, ist hier etwas harmloser, dafür aber auch von der Block-Qualität schlechter. - Rated 5 out of 5by Rinshun, a month ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by B00T987, 2 months agoI love this extension! However its a bit hard to use, because you have to uninstall, and reinstall the extension to open up the easy to use settings picker. If you change your settings as often as I do, if not then this is an easy 5/5 extension.

- Rated 4 out of 5by AnoniM0US3, 2 months agothe addon prevents "youtube comment search" addon from working
is there a way to fix this, without having to turn canvasblocker off each time?
or even better: can i block or unblock each element separately, until i find the culprit? (the way "NoScript" addon visualized this is very beginner userfriendly)
thank you - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18369793, 2 months ago
