Highlights:

  • Refreshed the popup with a higher-contrast look
  • Widget placeholders will no longer be applied for domains on the yellowlist. The value of widget placeholders is full blocking (best privacy) combined with a clear way to restore potentially useful blocked content (convenience). Mixing cookie blocking and placeholders doesn't actually improve privacy or convenience but does introduce various bugs.
  • Added a replacement placeholder for YouTube (disabled by default as youtube.com is still on the yellowlist for now)
  • Added the Widget Replacement tab to the options page to manage widgets that do get blocked and replaced with Privacy Badger placeholders. Visit Widget Replacement to selectively disable placeholders. For example, you want social buttons out of your life completely.
  • Fixed various site breakages
  • Added Hebrew translations
  • Improved translations (Italian, Russian, Ukrainian)

Full changeset: release-2019.10.8...release-2019.10.28
