Select:

Privacy:

Deselects all scripts. Good starting point to review and select individual tweaks.

Recommended for users who prefer total control over changes. It allows you to examine and select only the tweaks you require.

Privacy:

Provides a balanced approach between privacy and functionality.

Recommended for most users who wish to improve privacy with best-practices without affecting stability.

Includes:
  • Retains functionality of all apps and system services.
  • Clears non-essential OS and app telemetry data and caches.
  • Keeps essential security services enabled.

Privacy:

Focuses heavily on privacy by disabling some non-critical functions that could leak data.

Recommended for advanced users who prioritize privacy over non-essential functionality.

Includes:
  • Disables optional OS and app services that could leak data.
  • Clears non-essential caches, histories, temporary files while retaining browser bookmarks.
  • Keeps vital security services and critical application functionality.

Considerations:
  • Review each script to make sure you are comfortable with the disabled functionality.
  • Some non-critical applications or features may no longer function as expected.

Privacy:

Strongest privacy by disabling any functionality that may risk data exposure.

Recommended for extreme use cases where no data leak is acceptable like crime labs.

Considerations:
  • Not recommended for daily use as it breaks important functionality.
  • Do not run it without having backups and system snapshots, unless you're on a disposable system.

Revert:

Applies all selected scripts to protect your privacy.

Reverts selected scripts back to their default settings where possible, balancing system functionality with privacy.

Considerations:
  • Reverting changes may reduce the level of privacy protection.
