Librewolf

+

Librewolf is a Firefox fork with the primary goals of privacy, security and user freedom.[1]

+
+

Version tested: 95.0.2

+

Spyware Level: Low

+
+

Librewolf makes some calls on startup to f.s.s.m.c.qjz9zk which looks like an obliterated address, and shavar.services.mozilla.com which is intended.[2] There is also an attempt to check for updates regarding the pre-installed uBlock Origin extension.

+
+

This is a big improvement compared to Firefox.

+
+ Librewolf connections shows via a terminal running proxychains +

Note: Changing browser settings on TBB is not recommended by some, as they argue it is bad because it increases fingerprinting. Please also note that this is SpywareWatchdog, and not FingerprintWatchdog.

Spyware Rating: Low → Not Spyware

Please be aware that it is possible there may be even more spyware that needs removing than is covered in this guide.

Besides using the torrc configuration file, or host files, the only way to completely remove the connections is to unpack two omni.ja files, and remove all the addresses, and then re-zip the omni.ja files.


Find your omni.ja files:
