Geolocation
Privacy Thing changes the coordinates and accuracy reported by geolocation requests, including subsequent location updates.
See more. Share less.
See what a site checks and decide which browser data it receives. Give every domain its own location, language, and time zone — Privacy Thing applies consistent, plausible values automatically as you browse.
The Preview is available in the Chrome, Firefox, and Edge stores.

FAQ
Why was Privacy Thing created?
Fingerprinting is often embedded in website code, and blocking every attempt can break sites. Privacy Thing takes a different approach: it changes selected browser data and functions. Where possible, it supplies false values that form a plausible, internally consistent fingerprint. It does not promise complete protection or anonymity.
Open guide →What does X-Ray show?
X-Ray records detected use of supported browser data and functions in the current tab. It also identifies the source in control.
Open guide →Can different sites use different settings?
Yes. Domain Rules assign Regional Presets and protection settings to hosts and domain patterns. We love Firefox Containers. They are a fantastic concept, and Privacy Thing supports them directly with per-container settings and optional presets.
Open guide →Which browsers are supported?
The Preview is available in the Chrome, Firefox, and Edge extension stores. The Chromium version should also work in other Chromium-based desktop browsers that support Manifest V3, although those browsers are not part of the same release and testing matrix.
Open guide →When does Privacy Thing connect to external services?
Place search and map previews use external services, which Privacy Thing contacts only after you grant consent.
