How to set timezone without disabling ResistFingerprinting
How to set timezone without disabling ResistFingerprinting
I recently migrated to Librewolf from Firefox due to Mozilla's recent blunder of covertly adding adware to their browser.
I like the ResistFingerprinting feature for added privacy, but enabling it seems to set my browser time to GMT instead of ET, with most times on webpages (which refer to browser time) ahead by several hours as a result.
Can I define my desired timezone in the browser settings so I don't have to pick one or the other between a correct browser time and better privacy? TIA :D!
I have a similar requirement and use a self-written script in Tampermonkey, in which I falsify the wrong time (GMT) to the correct time just for websites I have previously defined. Specifically, I overwrite the newDate function on these.
This means that Librewolf always displays the wrong time (GMT) by default, except for websites I want to have the correct time (which just are a few) without the need to disable RFP.
Any chance you could share your script? I've tried a few browser extensions to solve this but they never seem to work on the sites where I actually need them. Your approach sounds way better!
Yes, of course. You will have to adapt it to your time zone, as the German time zone is currently hardcoded. If I had known back then that I would be sharing this at some point, I would have tried harder. 😅
