Decentraleyes and HTTPZ (and other replacements for HTTPS Everywhere) #4

Hi claustromaniac, Should I remove Decentraleyes if I want to use HTTPZ (or any other alternative to HTTPS Everywhere)? (I think the answer's yes but I'm not sure.) TIA.

Hi there,

HTTPZ should be fully compatible with Decentraleyes out of the box because it doesn't redirect sub-requests (only top-level document requests for now). I don't think there is any other way they can clash. I use both myself, by the way.

Thanks @claustromaniac. I think that an extension was intercepting requests to CDNs before Decentraleyes could re-direct those requests to its local resource. I removed and re-installed Decentraleyes, and the problem disappeared. I'm glad that HTTPZ was not the cause. :)
