DiscreetTab Firefox

DiscreetTab

Hides the favicon and the title of the website in the browser tab.

Features & Capabilities

DiscreetTab is a privacy-focused browser extension designed to enhance your browsing privacy by hiding the favicon and the title of the website in the browser tab. This helps to keep your browsing activities more discreet, especially when you have multiple tabs open. Features

Hide Website Title: Double-click on the extension icon to hide the title of the current tab. This replaces the tab's title with an underscore (_), making it difficult for others to see which websites you have open.

Hide Favicon: Double-click on the extension icon again to hide the favicon of the current tab. This changes the tab's icon to a blank icon, further enhancing privacy.

Restore on Refresh: Simply refresh the page to restore the original title and favicon of the tab.

Example Use Cases

Workplace Privacy: If you are working in an open office environment or a shared workspace, DiscreetTab helps you keep your browsing activities private from colleagues or supervisors who might glance at your screen.

Public Spaces: When browsing the internet in public places like cafes or libraries, DiscreetTab ensures that no one can easily see the websites you have open, providing an added layer of security.

Presentations and Meetings: During presentations or meetings, you can use DiscreetTab to quickly hide sensitive or personal tabs without closing them, ensuring a clean and professional appearance on your screen.

Is DiscreetTab 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.

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

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

DiscreetTab may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
