Mozilla released another new Firefox privacy feature this week, 'SmartBlock'.
Aggressive content blocking has often lead to broken websites, users of NoScript or uBlock Origin will know.
Firefox 'SmartBlock' is supposed to fix this by replacing blocked scripts with local, privacy-preserving stand-ins.
Firefox 87 also comes with improved referrer trimming. From now on, Mozilla's web browser will leak less information about its users to websites.
