Depopulate Firefox

Depopulate

An extension that blurs images containing skin tones. 80% of the time it works all of the time! Depopulate your images.

Features & Capabilities

Depopulate reviews a websites images (both on load and after) to determine if they contain skin tones. Skin tone calculations are based on the RGB color space and derived from academic papers. Some darker skin tones and non-color (black and white) images will not be filtered. Filtering on any page can be reversed by simply holding the mouse over the image for one second.

Certain websites can be excluded from Depopulation in the settings and detection parameters can be tweaked in the options panel. Blurring can be locked and blur pixel dimensions adjusted. Special detection and processing methods have been created for certain complex web applications (i.e. Twitter, YouTube).

Using the internet to work and not view endless photos of complete strangers? This crazy add-on might be for you. (Experimental)

Is Depopulate Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Depopulate requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
