Products that do what Firefox addon to quarantine a tab to use offline with private data does
Introducing QuaranTab: Companion extension to quarantine tabs so you can safely use them offline with private data I find myself wanting to use online format parsers to quickly decode that production JWT or decode a base64 Authorization header but cannot trust these websites to not leak my information. I thought to myself if only I could cut-off network access to this site, use it offline, and then throw away all browsing data. So I created an extension just for that. It uses Firefox contextual identities API (Containers) to isolate browsing data and inter-tab communication. Once the site is…

Sometimes you might want to share a screenshot of the website you're on, without revealing the personal data that is visible at that time. With Obfuscate, you can make text unreadable without changing the structure of the web page. Hit the extension button or press Alt+Shift+O to activate for the current page. (Note that extensions can't modify the add-on website, so trying it on there won't work.) Credit for the original idea: https://chaos.social/@maris/108379386421123630

I built a tool that reveals the data your browser exposes automatically every time you visit a website. GitHub: https://github.com/neberej/exposedbydefault Demo: https://neberej.github.io/exposedbydefault/ Note: No data is sent anywhere. Everything runs in your browser.

OP here. I built this because I recently caught myself almost pasting a block of logs containing AWS keys into Claude. The Problem: I need the reasoning capabilities of cloud models (GPT/Claude/Gemini), but I can't trust myself not to accidentally leak PII or secrets. The Solution: A Chrome extension that acts as a local middleware. It intercepts the prompt and runs a local BERT model (via a Python FastAPI backend) to scrub names, emails, and keys before the request leaves the browser. A few notes up front (to set expectations clearly): Everything runs 100% locally. Regex detection…

Hi HN, I'm Tyler Flint. Eight months ago we shared qtap here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43928118). Today we're releasing DevTools - a browser-based interface that gives you the Chrome Network tab experience for server-side HTTP/S traffic. The problem: You're debugging a production issue. An external dependency is returning errors. Your logs say "request failed" but not what was actually sent. Adding debug logging means redeploying and restarting services - which takes time and often changes the conditions you're trying to debug. tcpdump shows encrypted blobs.…

I had to do a bit of web-workflow documentation and found the process of gathering screenshots, placing them correctly into a document, and creating captions extremely tiring. I figured it’ll be easy to automate and also a great opportunity to get to know the Browser API, and here we are with the first release of the extension. It’s extremely easy to use but barebones which I plan to change in the near future, so any feedback will be appreciated. I want to keep the docs generation process completely offline to avoid dealing with server costs and GDPR stuff which poses a lot of challenges…

*Problem*: As a developer, I often juggle 50+ tabs across projects. Existing bookmark managers felt clunky, and tab groups required too many clicks. *Solution*: TabTab replaces your new tab page with a grid-style dashboard. Key features: - Save all open tabs as a collection with one click (perfect for debugging sessions) - Self-hosted sync via GitHub Gist/WebDAV (no tracking, your data stays yours) - Keyboard shortcuts & drag-and-drop (demo video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQQEKbI9moc]) *Tech Stack*: Built with WXT (browser extension framework) + React + Tailwind.…

I wrote this tool during an internship at Narf Industries in 2023. It's a REPL that allows for quickly developing, testing, and fuzzing for HTTP request smuggling attack payloads. I started the internship having never worked with web servers, and have now found over 100 HTTP implementation bugs. I attribute this mostly to the ease of experimentation in the Garden. REPL-oriented fuzzing is just a really good interface for finding parsing bugs. It's pretty neat to able to run a differential fuzzer, categorize and display all the discovered discrepancies, then let a human pick through them and…

I spent quite a lot of time working on this one over the last 1.5 years. It started as a small project for my personal use because I wanted to keep all my self-hosted services visible so I wouldn't forget they existed lol. Using a web page wasn't ideal because of the white flicker every time I opened a new tab, so I decided to make this into a browser extension. From that time on, it became a lot bigger and got some traction (which I'm very happy about). It's made with React, but I tried to squeeze maximum performance (limited by my skills and desire to keep it somewhat readable, though) out…
