So as the title mentions, I’m wondering how much is too much?

I am currently using Brave with the setting to:

  • Aggressively block trackers & ads
  • Only connect with HTTPS
  • Block fingerprinting
  • Block cross-site cookies

In addition to that, I have installed the following extensions:

  • uBlock Origin
  • Ghostery
  • Decentraleyes
  • DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials

So my question is: Is this overkill? If so, what should/could be removed that may be redundant? I want as much coverage as possible, but not have things bloated.

    NoScript also prevents clickjacking, redirection attack (if I remember correctly, also I’m not sure that it’s the correct term), and few more things that I can’t remember right now… From what I’ve heard one can replace them both with uMatrix, haven’t tried it though.

      uMatrix is abandoned

      I’m surprised no one has forked it yet, or at least none that I know of
