[libreplanet-discuss] HTML tags that should be stripped for privacy reasons.

[Josh Branning]

Hi,

I am in the early stages of developing a distributed web server, which 
hopefully will take anonymity into account when serving pages, a bit 
like freenet.

The interface will be, sort-of-like a self-hosted proxy to the web browser.

There are issues with such interfaces, because things like javascript 
and HTML canvas can track users using the web browser.

I have found lots of different implementations of different projects 
(like tor, freenet, privoxy etc.) that strip away these tags in some 
form or another, but I can find little or no documentation on how to do 
so myself ie. a complete list of html tags and HTTP headers etc. that 
are insecure for privacy reasons.

What I would really like is implementation details on how to avoid many 
of the issues stated on this page: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_privacy

So like two columns; Stated problem, and possible solution.

Perhaps it is something that could be added to the libreplanet wiki?

Best regards,

Josh
