Friday Squid Blogging: More Problems with the Squid Emoji
Piling on from last week’s post, the squid emoji’s siphon is in the wrong place.
As usual, you can also use this squid post to talk about the security stories in the news that I haven’t covered.

@ All Firefox pros:
I have a few questions, when Firefox is set to “I quit Firefox…automatically clear out all history,” Browsing & Download History, Cookies, Active Logins, Cache, Forms & Search History, Site Preferences and Offline Website Data, it appears to leave actual data in a cache and it takes and ad-on such as Bleach Bit to remove 5 to 7 MB of data?
Is Firefox just marking the memory area as usable or over-writeable without “Clearing out all history”? Is not that kind of deceptive and leaving possible trackers to read such history when landing on a tracking sites such as google?
On the topic of tracking, I use Privacy badger [PB]. There was some flap about the additional privilege level of PB. Privacy Badger requires your permission to:
Access your data for www. google. ad
Access your data for www. google. ad
Access your data for www. google .ae
Access your data for 383 other sites [What 300 + sites are those ?]
[URLs are fractured for saftey]
Is PB asking for administrator privilege level or the like?
Is PB safe with the newest edition?
Last but most important what setting in FF about:config can stop ALL location tracking? I think there are two or three. Is there any FF work around or ad-on that can change or obscure your location?
Thank you.
