A JavaScript-enabled web page can access much of the browser's functionality, with little control over this process available to the user: malicious websites can uniquely identify you through fingerprinting and use other tactics for tracking your activity. JShelter aims to improve the privacy and security of your web browsing.\n\n## How does it work?\n\nLike a firewall that controls network connections, JShelter controls the APIs provided by the browser, restricting the data that they gather and send out to websites. JShelter adds a safety layer that allows the user to choose if a certain action should be forbidden on a site, or if it should be allowed with restrictions, such as reducing the precision of geolocation to the city area. This layer can also aid as a countermeasure against attacks targeting the browser, operating system or hardware.\n\n\n## How can I get started?\n\nJShelter is a browser extension with support for multiple browsers: [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/javascript-restrictor/), [Google Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jshelter/ammoloihpcbognfddfjcljgembpibcmb), and [Opera](https://addons.opera.com/extensions/details/javascript-restrictor/). The extension also works with Brave, Microsoft Edge, and most likely any Chromium-based browser. [Let us know](https://pagure.io/JShelter/webextension/issues) if you want to add the extension to additional stores.\n\nSee our [website](https://JShelter.org/) for additional information and documentation. We recommend\nreading [our paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.01392) to get a better idea about the project.\n\n## Contributing\n\nIf you have any questions or you have spotted a bug, please [let us know](https://pagure.io/JShelter/webextension/issues). If you found a security bug that you do not want to share publicly, please, send a report to [jshelter@gnu.org](mailto:jshelter@gnu.org).\n\nIf you would like to give us [feedback](https://pagure.io/JShelter/webextension/issues), we would really appreciate it.\n\nIf you want to add a new wrapper, please, follow the [guide](https://jshelter.org/new-wrapper/). If\nyou have an image/artwork that you want to push to the project, we suggest stripping exif data:\n\n```shell\nexiftool -all= -tagsfromfile @ -Orientation filename.png\n```\n\nIf you want to translate JShelter to a new language or improve an existing translation, go to\n[Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/jshelter/webextension/).\n\n## License Information\n\nThis program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU\nGeneral Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either [version\n3](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0) of the License, or (at your option) any later version.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpolcak%2Fjsrestrictor","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpolcak%2Fjsrestrictor","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpolcak%2Fjsrestrictor/lists"}
