     @jfmblinux @blueghost @fsf We very recently added translation support. A French translation has not been submitted. If you have the ability to translate to French or any other missing languages, documentation can be found at https://jshelter.org/i18n/

     @thomzane @blueghost @fsf
     I don't use JShelter, I've been using CanvasBlockers for a very long time, along with uBlock Origin and Violentmonkey.
     I've noticed that JShelter asks for a lot more permission than CanvasBlockers.
     I'll test it (JShelter) on a different computer than the one I used every day.
     A French 🇫🇷 version would be welcome. 😉

     @jfmblinux @blueghost @fsf CanvasBlocker has some overlap in functionality, but this Fingerprint Detector (fpd) feature in this thread is unique to JShelter. CanvasBlocker is not necessary if you use JShelter.

     If I understand, JShelter is an extension like CanvasBlockers
