by adamhybel, a year agoDecentraleyes is a unique and powerful privacy-enhancing extension that smartly protects you from tracking via large Content Delivery Networks (CDNs).
- Stops CDN Tracking: Prevents tracking by major CDNs (like Google Hosted Libraries, Microsoft Ajax CDN, etc.) that often log your visits when websites request common resources (like fonts or JavaScript libraries) from them.
- Serves Common Libraries Locally: Instead of fetching these standard web resources from external CDNs, Decentraleyes instantly provides them from its own local storage, cutting out the third-party request entirely.
- Enhanced Privacy: Significantly reduces your digital footprint by eliminating unnecessary connections to potentially tracking servers, complementing your existing ad/content blockers.
- Improves Speed (Potentially): By serving resources locally, it can sometimes lead to faster page loads, as it avoids network latency for these common files.
- Lightweight & Transparent: Like uBlock Origin, it's designed to be efficient and operates seamlessly in the background. It's free, open-source, and trustworthy.
- Set and Forget: Simply install it, and it works automatically. No configuration is needed for excellent baseline protection.
That's it! Decentraleyes adds a crucial layer of privacy protection that many users overlook. It works perfectly alongside tools like uBlock Origin. A must-have for anyone serious about reducing online tracking. Huge thanks to the developers for this clever and indispensable tool. Highly recommended!

- Rated 4 out of 5by superoci, 2 months agoUseful extension if you care about privacy, although LocalCDN is a more up-to-date alternative. This one is still good if you just want a simple extension that works out of the box.
