OptMeowt allows Web users to make use of their rights to opt out from the sale and sharing of personal data

With the introduction of privacy regulations such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Web users have a right to limit the sale and sharing of their personal information.

available on several Chromium-based browsers including Chrome, Brave, Edge, Opera and Vivaldi!

chrome.google.com/webstore/det

just leave the settings as is after installing

every site you visit it will then set itself

also stops the sale/sharing of data to third party domains

wee update regarding settings for that extension

you can switch to "domain list" and every site you visit mostly all domains found will be toggled "on"

set a "hotkey" for the extension then you can check what is toggled on/off by default

chrome://extensions/shortcuts

you can set your own "hotkey"

also use the

themarkup.org/blacklight

tool for sites read all the results you get back for sites

then check your privacy badger and OptMeowt extensions and make sure trackers are blocked

and if you find/see a domain not blocked and you think it should be blocked you can then input the domain to OptMeowt

by blocked i mean toggled on for OptMeowt extension

privacy badger you can block

OptMeowt sends a request to not sell/share data to sites

just checking the domains added by this extensions

big list i have gathered in just 4days

@ecksmc

is this yours?

according to the webstore there is only one user and no reviews....I like the idea of of it, but am wary of such a new and untested extension......🤷‍♂️...any advice?

@killagator not mine

yeah it is a new extension tool

@phase posted a URL with some handy downloads for privacy based browsers and extensions all that i knew about

that one seems to be the new kid on the block i hadn't come across it before

think i am No.2 user via chrome store

@killagator although i don't know how often the chrome store user count gets updated

ik it doesn't update every instal/download that happens

@ecksmc Thanks for posting.

I read "OptMeowt" like a cat for some reason.
