212eta Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Firefox 42 Stable, which will be released on November 3, 2015 if the schedule holds,will ship with Tracking Protection, a new feature enabled in Firefox's private browsing modeto improve a user's privacy while using the mode.The feature blocks certain connections from being made to limit the exposure to tracking on the Internet.This works similar to how blocking extensions and programsWhile privacy is certainly the main feature of Tracking Protection,a recent study has shown that it will reduce the load time of websites by 44% on average.The actual mileage varies for obvious reasons, as the feature won't help improve the load timeif a site does not display advertisement or other tracking related scripts.Firefox 43: Tracking Protection with blocklist selection (ghacks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
