Bidding Iron Farewell; has become unusable

Post by BiggieSmalls »

Like most Iron users I value my privacy. But it seems Google and it's fanboy websites (Yahoo, Bank Card issuers, etc.) are all enforcing standard Chrome/Firefox usage so they can keep tabs on users. I've tried various user agent extensions to avoid browser detection but none works effectively in practice. In addition, Iron seems to have a pecular issue with javascript: void(0) errors where the whole browser window turns white. And as others have pointed out. Iron has also become slow.

It's been a nice, more than decade, long run and I appreciate the hard word the SRWare developers have put into the product. But I've moved on to a combination of Waterfox and Microsft Edge portable. :cry:

sounds like you're not running Privacy Badger and Canvas Blocker, which you and everyone should.

no matter what Browser you're using you still have to add on more Plugins to take care of what they don't cover or do. so use the many Plugins that you need to be using in order to have the privacy and security that's necessary.
