I made an extension that bypasses online age verification

To show my stance towards online age verification, I made a small (literally, less than 10 kilobytes) add-on that will completely skip ageverif.net's verification prompt. (Only that site (for now?))

With more and more data breaches going on it's important to protect yourself by not sharing unnecessary data, and to show how broken some age verification platforms are!

It's #opensource too! https://github.com/helloyanis/agechecker.net-bypass (more info on why I do it is in the readme)

@helloyanis@furries.club is it librewolf compatible?

@Maeve @privacy Haven't tried but it should be! Follow the instructions on GitHub!

@helloyanis@furries.club thanks so much!

G-d bless our furry savior!

@Maeve @privacy I didn't think when waking up today that I would be called "Furry savior" ! But I don't mind hehe!

Feel free to tell me if it works on librewolf so I know!

@helloyanis@furries.club ok I gotta attend to self-care needs, will install on return and get back to you.

@privacy@lemmy.ml

@Maeve @privacy Yeah it doesn't need to be done right away! Take care of your things! :dragn_mlem:

And of course a furry.

Is always a furry that save humanity.

@ZeroHora This is just a facade so that we eventually take over the world, but shh!!

Congratulations, you've made the first "must-have" extension to get added to my list in years

Can't this just be a filter in uBlock Origin? What does this do that is special that uBlock Origin can't do?

Curious to know this as well. I think it’s possible, but I myself am not capable of writing the filter.

@bamboo I dont't think so? I'm not sure how uBO filters works but the popup file is supposed to send an event to the main page to let it know that the verification is done and I don't think uBO filters can do that

In your experience do sites fail open or closed if the JavaScript from the third party not load? Like will the site wait for the event of the JavaScript library is never requested or loaded?
