A NEW PRIVACY OPTION HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE FIREFOX







In the recently released FireFox 65 update, Mozilla has rolled out a new interface that makes it easier to fine-tune control over trackers.


While the basic options are still pretty similar to what was offered in the old version, most user will still be choosing through what FireFox now calls "standard" mode, which block trackers in private (i.e., incognito) windows and "strict" mode, which blocks trackers at all time (but may cause issues with some websites).
But in FireFox 65, the browser puts these choices far more prominently in front of users, in addition to offering better explanations as to what each option actually entails. There is also a new custom mode control (in addition to the previously offered "exception" option that let people white list specific sites for all three modes).
