Note that we use localStorage too. Those options are disabled by default though. - * `contextMenus`: For adding some buttons to the right click:\ - - * `<all_urls>`: LibRedirect is dynamic and customizable. The targets e.g `https://youtube.com`, `https://twitter.com` are written in [Regex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression) and are much more complicated than to be hard-coded in the manifest. Ex: [search Regex](https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect/blob/master/src/assets/javascripts/helpers/search.js#L6=). Further more, we need to access the instances sites too to inject some localStorage variables. There's also an option to `Always Use Preferred instances` that is to even redirect of any other invidious instance to your selected instances. This has to be dynamic and you may even add a custom instance which can't at all be hard-coded. +* For bibliogram instances. To set a cookie you should send an http request to the server as the server stores settings values itself and gives you a token to access them. ## Future Changes If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page. |
