App Review Osprey Browser Protection Reviews

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

You shouldn't visit or download anything from driver-soft.com, lol. Straight bloatware. Osprey isn't in the wrong.
It's up to me what I do and don't download. It's a harmless PUP, rather than malware, which is why I don't want the website blocked. While I get that for many people, blocking websites containing PUPs is a good thing to do, in my case, I only want malicious websites, or websites containing actual malware downloads blocked. That's why I would like the option to not automatically enable new providers.

yes, but the process of throwing the toggle switches to suit your preference is very easy and takes less than 1 minute. Not a biggee.

Sure, but it would be nice to have the option to not have new providers automatically enabled.

@Foulest Forgive me if it's already been covered, but is it possible to monitor frame navigation separately, such that a benign page can still be visited while blocking CSS? Or does it do that when "ignore frame navigation" is checked? Avast is able to block iFrames separately on my phone, but I don't know how hard it would be to make that happen here. BTW, I'd lurve to one day see Osprey for iOS/Android. 😛
 
@Foulest P.S.: thank you for creating Osprey Browser Protection. I've since gotten rid of my other security extensions, and use Osprey by itself with either uBO or Pie, along with my utility extensions.

Osprey doesn't block page elements individually. I'll look into this though.

I have Osprey on Firefox for Android. Enable temporarily the option Desktop site and install the add-on from official addons.mozilla site.

PS: You don't have all functionalities, but the main menu is accessible.
