These mods should help deflect unwanted (and potentially dangerous) junk:
CHROME upper right chevron > Settings> tick "Show Advanced settings..." @ bottom> Privacy> Content settings> Cookies> (choose one of the top two), and "Block 3rd party..." Tick * : Show images Allow sites to run JavaScript" (Plug-in's) Click to play Do not allow pop-up's Do not allow any site to track my physical location Ask me when a site wants to show desktop notifications (recommended) Do not allow any site to disable the mouse cursor "Web intents"â‘¡ is a decision you must make. [IMHO this is more spying and potential security risks.] Do not allow sites to access my camera and microphone. (You decide if this is needed for some feature) * Only if you have the following plug-in's: â–º"AdBlock Plus" (might need 'subscription' added after install). https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search?q=ad+block â–º"KB SSL Enforcer" add-on: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detai...ofphddckof â–º"ScriptSafe" stops all kinds of nasties and should be used by everyone. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detai...lahbdbdgdf â‘¡ Read carefully what this feature does because it has convoluted implications. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Intents ADDITIONAL: Google Chrome: Best security tips for safer browsing; https://www.pcworld.com/article/2030873/...wsing.html |
