About this extension
An extension to stop multiple advanced tracking techniques employed by websites all over the web.
Trace has not been updated since 2021 and will likely not be updated again due to me not having time to work on it
Trace provides the following features:
Trace was made in my spare time as an extension to stop online tracking and give the user more control over browser features which may have been hard to find, or in other cases enabled with no option to disable. There is no team of developers behind Trace, I wrote it by myself and so you can be sure that there is no evil corporation behind it trying to get your data. If you don't believe me, check the source code, it's on GitHub.
