Firefox 42 with Tracking Protection Released
-
The Mozilla Foundation has released Firefox 42 with their new tracking protection feature according to eWeek.
Tracking Protection is different from "Do Not Track" (DNT) capabilities, another attempt at limiting Websites' abilities to track users. DNT first landed in Firefox 4.0 in 2011 as a capability whereby users identify whether they want to be tracked. The problem with DNT is that it requires Websites to respect the user's DNT choice, which does not happen often.
