Privacy Tweaks

Improve your online privacy with few tweaks via toolbar popup!

What is Privacy Tweaks?
'Privacy Tweaks' is an innovative Edge add-on aiming to improve your online privacy by using ten different techniques. These techniques work to block ads, canvas, font, webgl, and audiocontext fingerprints, alongside preventing webrtc IP leakage. This add-on also allows users to change their browser timezone and geolocation. Additionally, users can set up a custom socks5 proxy and block most common online trackers, providing them with enhanced online privacy over their browsing experience.
