[QUOTE="oldschool, post: 864040, member: 71262"] Decentraleyes has only broken 1 website I regularly visit (MT emojis ;)), and only 1 or 2 others - and this is with "Block requests for missing resources" enabled (an advanced setting which includes a "will break webpages" warning). It includes whitelising ability. [USER=82776]@Lenny_Linux[/USER] you didn't include Privacy Possum in your comparison in above post.
