Changing `normal_installed` to `force_installed` would also prevent uninstallation. This does contain some bloat or something not necessary in all situations or even overlapping extensions, but there is an important side goal of _teaching users to disable extraneous extensions they don't need_ (unless I decide they do need something and thus it's `force_installed`. ### [Silk - Privacy Pass Client for the browser](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ajhmfdgkijocedmfjonnpjfojldioehi) - `ajhmfdgkijocedmfjonnpjfojldioehi` Silk or Privacy Pass has a chance of decreasing the amount of captchas especially from Cloudflare when "suspicious" traffic is detected. To intentionally trigger it and what should be allowed in NoScript: - https://captcha.website - https://issuance.privacypass.cloudflare.com ### uBlock Origin - `cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm` Blocked for Ad Nauseam ### [HTTP Indicator](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/http-indicator/hgcomhbcacfkpffiphlmnlhpppcjgmbl) - `hgcomhbcacfkpffiphlmnlhpppcjgmbl` Displays whether a web page was loaded over HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 etc. ### [Fedora User Agent](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hojggiaghnldpcknpbciehjcaoafceil) - `hojggiaghnldpcknpbciehjcaoafceil` Communicates websites that Ubuntu isn't the only Linux distribution and makes some offer rpm packages directly. ### [IPvFooBar](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ipvfoobar/iimpkhokkfekbpmoamlmcndclohnehhk) - `iimpkhokkfekbpmoamlmcndclohnehhk` ### [AdNauseam](https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/adnauseam/mlojlfildnehdpnlmpkeiiglhhkofhpb) - `mlojlfildnehdpnlmpkeiiglhhkofhpb` Complementing PrivacyBadger with an adblocker so first profile runs have at least something to block Malvertising now that I no longer enable NoScript out of the box. ### uBlock Origin - `odfafepnkmbhccpbejgmiehpchacaeak` yes, it's the second time ,one is edge, one is chrome ### [Bitwarden](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nngceckbapebfimnlniiiahkandclblb) - `nngceckbapebfimnlniiiahkandclblb` The password manager of my choice. ### [Privacy Badger](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pkehgijcmpdhfbdbbnkijodmdjhbjlgp) - `pkehgijcmpdhfbdbbnkijodmdjhbjlgp` Configured to learn locally and also in incognito as opposed to only relying on vendor list. Also not display the "Welcome to Privacy Badger screen". See also: - https://github.com/EFForg/privacybadger/blob/master/doc/admin-deployment.md - https://github.com/EFForg/privacybadger/blob/master/src/data/schema.json ## `black-theme-colour.json.sample` Sets the theme colour as black. This is managed instead of recommended, because even the recommended policy seems to block theme changing. `.sample` suffix is there so maybe I will stop applying this policy and thus disabling GTK/Qt themes. ## `brave-shields-disabled.json` Allowlist for sites where I think Brave Shields may be breaking things. Similar is also in `aminda-extensions.json` for Privacy Badger. ## `disable-brave-rewards-wallet.json` Disables Brave rewards and wallet. ## `disable-brave-tor.json` Disables Tor in Brave as I recommend using Tor Browser instead. ## `disable-brave-vpn.json` Disables Brave VPN, which is the most annoying feature that has group policy that I can see. ## `disable-floc.json` Disables floc or ad topics that are against privacy. Additionally allows Manifest v2 extensions (as v3 is kind of floc too). - https://start.duckduckgo.com/?q=google+floc+privacy+topics ## `disable-incognito.json.badidea` Disables incognito mode. I don't recommend this. ## `doh-cloudflare-secure.json` Sets Cloudflare with malware protection as the forced DNS-over-HTTPS server. ## `doh-unlocked-unset.json` If no DNS over HTTPS policy is used, this unlocks the setting. Enabling managed policies disable it by default. My other `doh-*.json` set this as well, because `secure` doesn't allow downgrade to system resolver and Chromium seems somewhat unreliable with it often reporting `DNS_PROBE_POSSIBLE` and while this occassionally disables ECH, it works and my system resolvers are encrypted. I hope they will implement ECH with system resolver soon to fix this. ## `doh-dns0.json` Simply forces DNS-over-HTTPS with DNS0.eu. ## `doh-mullvad-base.json` Forces DNS-over-HTTPS with Mullvad Base, which features ad, malware & tracker blocking. - https://mullvad.net/en/help/dns-over-https-and-dns-over-tls#specifications ## `doh-quad9-ecs.json` Forces DNS over HTTPS with Quad9 ECS enabled threat-blocking server and also contains their alternative port. ## `doh-quad9-insecure-ecs.json.badidea` Forces DNS over HTTPS with Quad9 ECS enabled unfiltered server and also contains their alternative port. **No DNSSEC either.** ## `doh-quad9-insecure.json.badidea` Forces DNS over HTTPS with Quad9 unfiltered server and also contains their alternative port. **No DNSSEC either.** ## `doh-quad9.json` Forces DNS over HTTPS with Quad9 threat-blocking server and also contains their alternative port. ## `doh-unlocked-unset.json` Allows configuring DoH even with managed policies present (unless another DoH rule is in force) since enabling any managed policy will otherwise gray out the option. ## `edge-appsfavorites.json` Edge apps in favorites bar. ## `edge-newtabapps.json` Should enable apps in new tab page, although I am not seeing it. ## `edge-screenshots.json` Explicitly enables screenshotting- ## `enable-chromecast.json` Explicitly enables Chromecast support. ## `enable-ech-ocsp.json` Enables encrypted client hello (ECH) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP)/Certificate Revocation List (CRL) checks. However ECH requires `"DnsOverHttpsMode": "secure"` which will break things (and thus my files don't enable it), or it will occassionally get disabled (I hope they implement it with system resolver soon). ## `enable-google-safebrowsing.json` Enforces Google Safe Browsing in standard mode. For advanced mode and sending data to Google, increase to 2. I just don't trust my family to not find and disable the feature, especially if there was an unfiltered DNS server. ## `enable-google-safebrowsing-less-private.json.sample` This would enable Google Safebrowsing and send additional data to Google including downloads etc. ## `enable-labs.json` Enables the beaker button "Experiments" for easier management than `about:flags`. ## `enable-passwordleakdetection.json` Warns about password reuse, although that may only be with Google account. ## `enable-tab-suspend.json` Enables the efficiency mode which suspends background tabs. ## `fix-edge-search.json` Tells Microsoft Edge to redirect queries from new tab search box to URL bar effectively forcing it to respect user configured search engine instead of stealthily sending those queries to Bing. ## `force-incognito.json.badidea` Forces incognito mode. I don't recommend this. ## `https-everywhere.json` Enforces https and attempts to upgrade http to https. ## `README.md` You are reading this file, are you not?
