2025-06-09 No***** Does not work. Even on supported CDN resources like jQuery 3.5.1 from Google, Decentraleyes fails to intercept requests. No errors, no logs, no action. Tried with default Firefox, no other extensions, and even via local web server — still nothing. Switched to LocalCDN and everything works instantly. This addon seems abandoned or broken in current Firefox versions.
