Auto Referer Chrome Extension

control referer to protect privacy and not break web.
control http referer to protect privacy and not break web. Open source at https://github.com/garywill/autoReferer

Referer policy:

1. For webs' top frame (i.e. clicking link, navigating, redirecting etc.):

1). If origin and target url have same domain, allow trimmed referer

2). If origin and target url have different domain, no referer

2. For in-page resources (images, videos, js, css etc.), allow trimmed referer (this is **the key to not break** most webs, also a balance between privacy and experience)

3. trim referer: Any referer should be no more than `http(s)://domain-name:port/`

4. Not allow referer that not starts with "http" or "https". (Please feedback if you find something broken due to this)

5. No referer when downgrade from HTTPS/WSS to HTTP/WS

We believe that can protect privacy enough and won't break web.

If user find a web broken, user can temporary set this addon disabled via toolbar button for:

- this one tab

- this one tab and new tabs opened by this tab

- this one window (Firefox only)

- globally

(above can be set as keyboard shortcuts)

there's showy toolbar button badge indicating disabling status.
