如果像大多数人一样,您在使用社交媒体,特别是Facebook(Facebook)时担心自己的隐私,那么Mozilla Firefox为您提供了理想的解决方案。该修复程序以他们流行的Firefox(Firefox)浏览器扩展的形式出现,称为Facebook Container。该扩展被设想为一种对抗大型科技巨头对收集消费者个人数据日益增长的兴趣的一种方式。
Facebook 容器 Firefox 插件
Facebook 容器如何工作(How does Facebook Container work)
这个聪明的软件包将您的Facebook身份隔离到一个单独的容器中,将其与您的其他互联网使用隔离开来。此解决方案可防止Facebook在互联网上跟踪您并为广告目的收集数据。该公司是世界上最大的广告商之一,因此从其庞大的客户数据库中积累的数据集中受益匪浅。正是这一行动意味着公司可以在客户离开网站后在互联网上关注他们,从而从中受益匪浅。
此扩展程序将您的数据从Facebook、Instagram和Facebook Messenger隔离到一个单独的容器中,从而更难通过第三方 cookie 跟踪您在其他网站上的活动。
Facebook 容器的限制(Limitations of Facebook Container)
请(Please)注意,Facebook Container应用程序只会阻止将新数据传输到社交媒体巨头,并且不会控制他们已经拥有的任何个人信息。Mozilla一直在努力帮助Facebook用户保护他们的隐私,Mozilla自己也不会使用您的数据。
毫不奇怪,许多消费者现在都在寻求确保他们的在线安全。秘密使用个人数据的急剧增加以及行业大公司缺乏控制或责任意味着没有多少人真正在自己的利益之上寻找消费者,这是一个很好的步骤来自Mozilla。
如何使用 Facebook 容器 Firefox 插件(How to use the Facebook container Firefox Add-in)
1] 只需在此处(here)(here)打开加载项页面,然后单击Add to Firefox。弹出窗口会询问您是否允许加载项与Firefox浏览器集成。
就是这样!立即使用 Facebook(Use Facebook),而不用冒您的数据风险。
现在,您的所有Facebook链接都将在容器内打开,在容器(Container)外打开非Facebook链接。此功能仅限于Firefox浏览器,这意味着如果您使用任何其他浏览器打开Firefox , Container将无法工作。
A huge step!
这应该是一家公司在行业领先的一步,尽管最近一直很安静,但通常是行业中一股向善的力量,并且经常自己承担起行业中的良性斗争。对于那些比以前更担心自己的在线安全的人来说,此举可能是一个非常强大的吸引力。它是否让Mozilla重新成为众人瞩目的焦点还不确定,但从长远来看,它肯定不会损害他们的品牌。
希望(Hopefully)该行业的其他大公司,如谷歌(Google)和微软(Microsoft)现在效仿Mozilla的领先地位,并帮助更好地保护他们的消费者,但由于这两家公司也从他们的广告利用中获得巨额利润,他们似乎不太可能被驱动这样做。这意味着Mozilla确实是一场战争中的孤军奋战,不幸的是,这场战争可能会与他们对抗。但这里希望行业的其他人能够接受它,而不是忽视存在的潜力。现在是该行业对人们的数据负责的时候了。也许这是迫切需要的催化剂。

Prevent Facebook from tracking you | Facebook Container Firefox addon
If like most people you are concerned aboυt your prіvacy when using soсial media and spеcifically Facebook then Mozilla Firefox has an ideal fix for you. The fix comes in the form of an extension for their popular Firefox browser and is called Facebook Container. The extension was dreamed up as a way to battle back against the increasing appetite that the large tech giants have for harvesting the personal data of their consumers.
Facebook Container Firefox addon
How does Facebook Container work
The clever software package isolates your Facebook identity into a separate container that isolates it from the rest of your internet use. This solution prevents Facebook from following you around the internet and harvesting the data for its advertising purposes. The company is one of the world’s largest advertiser’s and as such benefits hugely from the dataset that it amasses from its huge client database. It is this action that means the company benefits significantly from following its clients around the internet after they leave the site.
This extension isolates your data from Facebook, Instagram, and Facebook Messenger into a separate container making it harder to track your activity on other websites via third-party cookies.
Limitations of Facebook Container
Please be mindful that the Facebook Container application only prevents new data being transferred to the social media behemoth and does not control any of your personal information that they already have. Mozilla has worked hard on helping Facebook users to protect their privacy and Mozilla themselves do not use your data either.
It is no surprise that many consumers are now looking to ensure their safety online. A sharp rise in the surreptitious use of personal data and a lack of control or responsibility from the big players in the industry means that there are not many people out there that are truly looking out for consumers above their own interest and it is a good step from Mozilla.
How to use the Facebook container Firefox Add-in
1] Simply open the add-in page here and click on Add to Firefox. A pop-up will ask for your permission to allow the add-in to get integrated with the Firefox browser.
That’s it! Use Facebook without risking your data now.
Now all your Facebook links will open within the Container and non-Facebook links outside the container. This facility would be limited to the Firefox browser only, which means that the Container won’t work if you open Firefox with any other browser.
A huge step!
This should be an industry leading step from a firm that, although has been quiet of late, has generally been a force for good in the industry and has often taken it upon itself to fight the good fights in the industry. The move could be a very powerful draw for those who are more worried about their online safety than they perhaps had been previously. Whether it throws Mozilla back into the limelight is less certain, but it will certainly do their brand no harm in the long run.
Hopefully, other big players in the industry such as Google and Microsoft now follow Mozilla’s leading stance and help to protect their consumers better, but as both of these companies also profit heavily from their advertising exploits it seems highly unlikely that they will be driven to doing so. This means Mozilla is really a lone fighter in a war that unfortunately could be stacked against them. But here’s hoping that the rest of the industry take it on board rather than ignoring the potential that exists. It’s about time the industry was held accountable for people’s data; perhaps this is the catalyst that is desperately needed.
