What is JShelter?

JShelter is a browser extension to give back control over what your browser is doing. 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.

How does it work?

Like 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.

Please see the FAQ (https://jshelter.org/faq/) and our blog (https://jshelter.org/blog/) for more information about the extension.

It is causing high cpu and memory usage in some pages until freezing the system, both chrome and firefox and still not fixed. Could not recommend this extention with lot of bugs. https://pagure.io/JShelter/webextension/issues

Does the job. BUT annoyingly breaks login and forms for websites using reCAPTCHA. Guess we can't have both.

Un estensione davvero incredibile! Quello che cercavo. Funziona veramente. Blocca effettivamente i popup in javascript sito per sito. Anche la precedente che avevo bloccava effetrivamente i js ma poi era diventata fastidiosa per il sito che volevo bloccare bloccando però tutti il mondo, li dovevo mettere in whitelist. Questa invece...è perfetta ho impostato: non blocco tutto il mondo però blocco gli js solo un sito. Tornando all'estensione..questa....ha una grafica di semplice, facile e immediato utilizzo. Un enorme grazie.

Not only great idea, but the extension is already working. I appreciate friendly graphical user interface - it easy to understand setting of this extension. The best idea is testing page (https://polcak.github.io/jsrestrictor/test/test.html), where I could immediately try that extension works perfectly - it has hided my sensitive information that may have been misused by potential attackers on the website. Now I feel safer.
