Überwachung für Alle!

... is a splendid new plugin for browsers that actually lessens your privacy. Or in other words, if you do leak data, do it at your own will!

All web requests, tab changes, mouse and keyboard events are collected and sent to an elasticsearch server for further statistical inspection. Or in other words:

If you do watch porn on the internet then stay up to date with profiling technology and investigate your own behaviour with even more detailed data than the pink amagoo microbook porn industry itself is able to collect.

Try it then?

Well, this is just an early plugin stage but seems to work good with firefox and chromium a.t.m.

firefox

In firefox go to about:debugging, select This Firefox and browse for the manifest.json.

Or permanently install a signed package from the dist/firefox/ folder by clicking the gear icon on the about:addons page.

It's submitted for listing on addons.mozilla.org but got rejected with the elaborate comment "Spam content".

chrome/chromium

In chromium open chrome://extensions/, enable Developer mode and click Load unpacked.

How to?

Once it's loaded, click the popup image and open the configuration. All surveillance features are deactivated by default.

To see the structure of the event objects that are exported open the Investigate page and click on one of the events.

Important

This is a fun project but it actually can leak confidential data so be careful where you export your data to. There is no hidden communication to Microsoft or anyone else, unless you specifically say so in the configuration.


And now, apart from this great plugin here is something personal i share. The count and average duration of the alphabetic keys that i pressed while writing this readme and the script for these images in a jupyter notebook:

Yes, now that i see it, i like pressing the k a bit longer but i didn't know about my aversion to b...

Here is where i clicked most:
