Google ads why?

We can't use the extension. The extension doesn't control the Proxomitron. We can use their proxies, http://gs.netsend.nl/ , and with any browser.

Like

Code:

[HTTP headers]
In = FALSE
Out = TRUE
Key = "! : Proxy: Googleshare NV test (0ut)"
URL = "([^/]++.|)google.[a-z]+/&*[&?]q=&$SETPROXY(gs.netsend.nl:81)(^)"

In = FALSE
Out = TRUE
Key = "! : Proxy: Googleshare NV test gstatic (0ut)"
URL = "([^/]++.|)gstatic.com/&*[&?]q=&$SETPROXY(gs.netsend.nl:81)(^)"

[Proxies]
OpenLog = TRUE

>gs.netsend.nl:81 GoogleSharing

Above sends information to a server that I know nothing about and is not complete! Does not require https.

My Fx4 on the host machine is VERY tweaked. I had not set "dom.storage.enabled" to false as I have on Fx4. So, I did that and redid the Panopticlik test and with Proxo DISabled, that sets the SuperCookie test, and Browser Plugin Details, to "noscript" and most of the other tests also. I can't see how that setting affects Browser Plugin Details or the other categories (except SuperCookie) but it does. If I then enable Proxo, and do the test, I still get Browser Plugin Details and it is the one with the most definitive bits. The SuperCookie test says DOM storage is off and that I expected. What I get from this is that Fx does a better job on its own at Panopticlik in not tattling. Proxo causes the tattling. It doesn't matter how many folks know about the test as long as Browser Plugin Details, etc are all being sent to the websites I visit. Fx, without Proxo, show almost noneof the identifying details (except user agent string) but why setting "dom.storage.enabled" to false accomplishes this I don't know. (Maybe my Fx 10 is all wacky as I did not make a new profile when I upgraded to it from 3.0. I did install ver 10 in a separate location so it is a clean install (not on top of Fx 3) but I did not add a new profile. I have some problems, possibly due to a corrupted profile, so it could be I will find different results when I do make another profile which I can't even recall how to do, offhand, as I haven't made a new Fx profile in many years).

You aren't filtering https but the panopticlick test that I see is all https? Your Proxomitron shouldn't be doing much at all...

Sometimes the panopticlick test does not return correct or expected info. I suggest that you clear the browser's cookies and cache and restart the browser before each test.

I don't think browser plugin details are sent to all the websites that you visit. The panopticlick test requests that info. If your browser replies, they know something; if your browser does not reply, they know something.
