Now it could be nice to have an indicator of the global privacy settings. Imposing something mean you take away the possibility for the people to make the choice and understand the implication of that choice. If they want to jump on the button and enable all extension, they should be able to do it, as long as there is a warning sign telling them why they shouldn't. People need to be in charge of their privacy.
It's never good to block entirely something just because it's supposed to be better for everybody.
The person that will use Epic are people already aware of general privacy issues. Holding on the ideals, as suggest kittengnu, is counterproductive in the long run in my opinion. Having keepass integrated (as it can be in firefox through extension) would be very nice.Īs for the enable button with a privacy warning, I think it's a good idea. It's similar to Lastpass except it's opensource.
I was able to install DuckDuckGo's browser plug-in, but with the plug-in page being blocked, I can't really remove it.Įdit: Yeah it is fully possible to circumvent the block and install from Google's Web Store. So for me, once the Linux version comes out I'll use Epic beside Opera Presto, and waiting for you till you've found a suitable solution to bring back extensions (I'm a bit skeptic if adding a white-list solution though, if that is what you hinted) and history.Īlso a note/bug is that you can install extensions. But there's some features you limits one without extension, and for me as well I'm in need of the history. I can however see where you're coming from, and holding on the ideals is much better then just add a "enable" button and most users will automatically jump to it, hence defeating the purpose of the browser.
I don't think it will add much to the debate, but I'll another voice to that we are indeed in the need of extensions.
