Doesn't work properly on Firefox #10

After installed and setup to a proper time zone the addons page https://add0n.com/spoof-timezone.html?version=0.2.3&type=install shows that on inline my time zone is London also iframe shows my real time zone but I had selected Bogota as time zone.

I did test on a new profile and shows the same issue.

What is your OS? can you reproduce this on Chrome too?

lcamacho commented 6 years ago

I tried on MacOS High Sierra and Windows 10, Chrome works fine it's only Firefox

content-script injection in FF is not yet mature. It sometimes misses one frame. I am not sure if there is a way to fix this.

With all due respect, I think you should add a notice that this add-on does not fight fingerprinting (at least on Firefox), because having a different DateTimeFormat depending on the frame makes your browser nearly unique (opposite effect). PS: I have the same issue on Firefox 67.0.1.
