Lockdown Safari content-blocker functionality? #90

Closed pvraj closed 3 years ago

pvraj commented 3 years ago

I noticed in the Safari content-blocker section there is an entry for Lockdown. I didn't see any info on it; is this basically a (Safari only, more battery friendly) alternative to using the Lockdown Firewall (i.e., if someone already uses another VPN app, but still wants benefits of Lockdown)? Could be worth updating any user-facing documentation to clarify this.

Thanks!

Content blocker is a not-yet-announced feature for Lockdown, though you are free to enable it if you want. And no, it is not a replacement for Firewall. Content Blocker only affects Safari, not apps.
