-1. Some sites refer to zero-size images on other hosts to keep track
- of cookies. When IceCat detects this mechanism it blocks cookies
- from the site hosting the zero-length image file. (It is possible
- to re-enable such a site by removing it from the blocked hosts
- list.)
+Https-Everywhere: Extension that encrypts your communications with
+many major websites, making your browsing more secure.
-2. Other sites rewrite the host name in links redirecting the user to
- another site, mainly to "spy" on clicks. When this behavior is
- detected, IceCat shows a message alerting the user.
+SpyBlock: Blocks privacy trackers while in normal browsing mode, and
+all third party requests when in private browsing mode. Based on
+Adblock Plus.
+
+AboutIceCat: Adds a custom "about:icecat" homepage with links to
+information about the free software and privacy features in IceCat,
+and checkboxes to enable and disable the ones more prone to break
+websites.
+
+Fingerprinting countermeasures: Fingerprinting is a series of
+techniques allowing to uniquely identify a browser based on specific
+characterisics of that particular instance (like what fonts are
+available in that machine). Unlike cookies the user cannot opt-out of
+being tracked this way, so the browser has to avoid giving away that
+kind of hints.
