Hello and thank you for the PR! Could you share links to pages that contain this widget? The more distinct sites, the better. One link per each different site is good.

Stupidoodle commented 2 months ago

Its only player.kick.com

I am looking for examples of pages that include this Kick Player widget. Like, https://example.com/some/page/that/includes/kick/widget.html but for real. Multiple different sites would be great.

I need to see examples of this widget in the wild before I can add it to Privacy Badger.

By the way, widget replacement only makes sense for situations when widgets from one company are embedded on websites belonging to other companies/organizations/people. Privacy Badger will only replace Twitch streams (for example) embedded on other people's websites, not on Twitch itself. There is no point to blocking and replacing Twitch on Twitch.

Ah I see what you mean, sorry I didnt understand properly.

So I saw it it the wild on chess.com, but it always switches between twitch.com and kick.com embed, so you gotta keep an eye on the site

I looked a bit through error reports, and I don't see any mentions of player.kick.com in any capacity, so it doesn't seem to be out there much yet. Let's hold off adding Kick for now.
