CODYQX4 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 As far as benchmarking on chrome there's bad memory leak with extensions Making it imposable to benchmark to see witch is best for itIssue 441500: Popup UI of extensions causes systematic memory leaks (can be massive for complex popup UI)https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=441500this bug has been known since DEC still no fix in sightAs far as this issuseIssue 457492: Creating an option to block webrtc to prevent IP leakagehttps://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=457492Its not a bug they added this on purpose any site that has a stun server can check for your real ip using a vpn .So if you use chrome any flavor chances are your real ip is leaking if you use a vpn and if you use extensions its a great big memory hog ;)For the record, my VPN config doesn't leak my real WAN IP.I allow ipleak.net to load the needed JS, and it gets my LAN IP and VPN IP.My config:1.OS X2. Viscosity3. PrivateInternetAccess loaded config (any location is probably fine.4. Ensure I don't connect via Wi-Fi and Ethernet at the same time, else both IPs leak (so unplug Ethernet, or turn off Wi-Fi).5. Check "Send all traffic over VPN".6. Add a default route (0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255) in Viscosity to vpn_gateway. If your VPN dies, everything still tries to go over it, and fails, instead of happily going over your ISP untunneled.7. For good measure, I put a script that on disconnect, will disable all my interfaces, wait 30 seconds, and reconnect via VPN. The default route gets re-added on each attempt, since disabling the interfaces clears it on OS X. It will either get back on the VPN or loop trying to, if it has glitched out, but doesn't just throw you on sans VPN.Doing this, I don't reveal my WAN IP in any of the tests so far. This isn't on Windows though, which seems more prone to DNS leaks.Of course, I have JS blocked by default in most cases, so I'm not going to click some random link somewhere and immediately leak it.But they really do need to fix the WebRTC block extension, it is useless now.

steven36 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 But they really do need to fix the WebRTC block extension, it is useless now.what happened was this user upsuper, has updated the original github tool developed by Daniel Roesler to defeat what upsuper calls "naive WebRTC blocking."upsuper, first reported that the use of an iframe defeated WebRTC Block in his review of WebRTC Block in the Google Chrome plugin store.https://github.com/diafygi/webrtc-ips/commit/bc5294e7b4f7addc0a0d226ffef921446d7da901I cant use vpn behind a router because of other people I share it with . And I mostly only used Chrome if i had problems doing something in Firefox so blocking scripts will break webpages . Firefox , Cyberfox has like 3 things working to block WebRTC and Palemoon , Maxthon’s Cloud Browser or IE dont have the problem . I tested many browsers the problem with Chrome based browsers even if you try use and old one before they added WebRTC they have blocked extensions in these. They done it on purpose you use to could disable it in flags they removed the ability to do this in new versions. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox and Safari are my go-to browsers if something is too much of a pain to unblock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox and Safari are my go-to browsers if something is too much of a pain to unblock.Only is Maxthon stable dont have WebRTC the beta has it and browsers dont need WebRTC to function its a crap idea . If you want to chat and watch each other on cam install a video chat program . Whats so crazy they make that chrome browser Torch Web Browser that supports torrents and there's no way to disable WebRTC in it.I use Random Agent Spoofer for along time it disables WebRTC and has many more privacy tweaks and if I dont want use it i can turn it off . Thing is doing things in about config is ok but troublesome. if you need to undo it real fast.in the news right now I read Google dont want the USA GOVT to pass that law were they can hack VPN users ..No wonder they dont want them pass such laws there browsers already have backdoors in them the USA can use to get past it . They made it easy for the USA Govt. to do now they dont want them to do it when Google does it themselves .There the biggest hypocrites on the planet . :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogeyman Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 In ublock, I already use Fanboy+Easylist-Merged Ultimate List so do I still need EasyPrivacy & Fanboy’s Enhanced Tracking List ?edit: I mean do the Fanboy+Easylist-Merged Ultimate List include EasyPrivacy & Fanboy’s Enhanced Tracking List? since it under the multipurpose section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
