by Firefox user 15703644, 6 years agoКогда любое ПО становится популярным, возникает вопрос об его этичности по отношению к пользователям. Проблемы с правами доступа к IP твоего компа нет - dns API только позволяет резолвить доменные имена используя твой DNS, просто firefox показывает неправильное сообщение:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1617861
https://pontoon.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/all-resources/?string=176403
Прежде чем прекратить использовать uBlock Origin и писать негативный отзыв о правах на доступ к IP, пожалуйста потрать немного своего времени, чтобы прочитать что пишет об этом разработчик:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Permissions#access-ip-address-and-hostname-information
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/780
В теории, всё может повредить твоей анонимности, но это не похоже на повод для излишнего беспокойства. Однако в случае, если ты используешь SOCKS5 и переживаешь за утечку DNS, обрати внимание на эти треды:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/911
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1618271
Судя по тому что в голове у разработчиков, они просто пытаются закрыть ещё один способ отслеживания. Разработчикам же firefox/расширения следует пофиксить возможность утечки локального DNS.
И кстати, фичу можно отключить: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Advanced-settings#cnameuncloak
Ещё треды на Reddit:

When any software becomes popular, there rises a question on it's ethics related to it's users. uBlock Origin does not access your host's IP - dns API only allows to resolve domain names using your DNS, but firefox seems to mislead users on that matter showing confusing prompts:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1617861
Before you stop using uBlock Origin and write negative review on IP permissions issue, please spare some of your time to read what developer tells about this:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Permissions#access-ip-address-and-hostname-information
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/780
In theory, everything can damage your anonimity, but it seems there's no need to worry too much on that case.
But if you use SOCKS5 and care about DNS leaking, check those threads:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/911
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1618271
I hope developers are really just trying to make another way of tracking people impossible. While firefox/extension developers should fix possibility of local DNS leaks.
BTW, you can disable this feature: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Advanced-settings#cnameuncloak

- Rated 3 out of 5by Pathakin, 2 days agoworks great on most websites, youtube often has some issues though, most commonly with ads displayed on the homepage. furthermore you need a github account to report errors, which i think isnt very good.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Monish, 3 days agouBlock Origin is honestly one of the best Firefox extensions. It works great, and YouTube ad blocking works perfectly for me.
I especially find the one-star reviews saying “YouTube ad blocker not working” funny, because I’m having the complete opposite experience. No annoying YouTube ads, and the extension just does its job.
Definitely deserves 5 stars. - Rated 5 out of 5by GeepCheep, 4 days ago
