Built-in Web-based Email Tracker Blocker in Firefox

[bobreyes]

It would be awesome if we can have a Firefox feature to block tracking pixels, like the ones used by marketing companies when they send emails.

I use Trocker for Firefox [https://trockerapp.github.io/] and something like that built into Firefox will make our online lives more private.

@Jeppie Thanks for asking! Not yet, but we’re working on it!

@kkimthank you. Will you be updating the progress of the mobile version in this post when you begin with the development of it?

[kkim]

@Jeppie Yes, I will!

Thank you very much for this announcement @kkim this is fantastic news! Looking forward to trying this out as I frequently use webmail on a desktop. Thanks for keeping us informed and sharing links to report any bugs.

Thanks, everyone, for tuning in! With Email Tracker Blocking shipped via Enhanced Tracking Protection on desktop, we will be relabeling this ticket as "Delivered."

But wait... there will be more! As mentioned earlier, I will follow up in this comment thread for feature developments on the mobile side (most likely Android). In the meantime, please refer to our Firefox Relay service, which provides even more comprehensive email tracker blocking support to your mobile device.

Thank you again!

@kkimis there any info about the mobile version?

[kkim]

Hey @Jeppie , thanks for reaching out! Not yet. We're in the middle of planning for Q4 and 2024, and I'm bringing this up to our Mobile team. Will follow up here as updates come.

@kkimokay thank you. Just one question why not release the feature at the same time as the desktop version.
