  • Firefox Android Reader Mode
    Firefox android reader mode Continue Image: Firefox Development Firefox Preview, Firefox's restored Android app, is moving smoothly together, and this week one of its best features received a substantial update. Mozilla added browser extension support to Firefox Preview back in February, but you can only install one addition: uBlock Origin. Mozilla's latest test builds for Firefox Preview have added five more add- ons to the mobile browser that can be installed from the app settings, and they're all stunning: Screenshot: Brendan HesseDark Reader - automatically includes a dark mode for (most) websites, even if the page usually doesn't have one. HTTPS Everywhere - Adds HTTPS encryption to websites whenever possible. NoScript - Warns you about potentially dangerous web-page scripts and lets you decide whether they will be running or not. Privacy Badger - Blocks internet trackers hidden on the sites you visit. Image Search - Allows you to select and reverse search for images of any images you find while viewing. These new add-ons are available in the latest version of the developer's Firefox Preview. You can try them early by downloading Nightly Build from Google Play. While Night builds are designed for developers and often suffer from stability issues, downloading it so won't re-write any other version of Firefox Preview you've installed. If something doesn't work, you can just delete the browser and swap back for the more stable version of Firefox Preview you used before. New additions should be available in other versions of the app soon anyway. How to install add-onsInstall Firefox Preview Night Assembly from Google Play Store.

  • Hacking the Master Switch? the Role of Infrastructure in Google's
    Hacking the Master Switch? The Role of Infrastructure in Google’s Network Neutrality Strategy in the 2000s by John Harris Stevenson A thesis submitteD in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information University of Toronto © Copyright by John Harris Stevenson 2017 Hacking the Master Switch? The Role of Infrastructure in Google’s Network Neutrality Strategy in the 2000s John Harris Stevenson Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information University of Toronto 2017 Abstract During most of the decade of the 2000s, global Internet company Google Inc. was one of the most prominent public champions of the notion of network neutrality, the network design principle conceived by Tim Wu that all Internet traffic should be treated equally by network operators. However, in 2010, following a series of joint policy statements on network neutrality with telecommunications giant Verizon, Google fell nearly silent on the issue, despite Wu arguing that a neutral Internet was vital to Google’s survival. During this period, Google engaged in a massive expansion of its services and technical infrastructure. My research examines the influence of Google’s systems and service offerings on the company’s approach to network neutrality policy making. Drawing on documentary evidence and network analysis data, I identify Google’s global proprietary networks and server locations worldwide, including over 1500 Google edge caching servers located at Internet service providers. ii I argue that the affordances provided by its systems allowed Google to mitigate potential retail and transit ISP gatekeeping. Drawing on the work of Latour and Callon in Actor– network theory, I posit the existence of at least one actor-network formed among Google and ISPs, centred on an interest in the utility of Google’s edge caching servers and the success of the Android operating system.

  • The Current State of Progressive Web Apps
    Dirk-Jan Rensema The Current State of Progressive Web Apps A study on the performance, compatibility, consistency, security and privacy, and user and business impact of progressive web apps Informatics Bachelor Thesis Term: VT20 Supervisor: Dr. Bridget T. Kane PhD Examiner: Prof. John Sören Pettersson Abstract Since the late 80s the web has been evolving through new standards, added functionality, device performance and improved user experience. Websites evolved from static information to what is now known as web apps in which web technologies started to replace regular native programs and apps, as web apps slowly started offering similar functionality and performance, with the added benefit of being cross-platform. Over time, even more functionality and improvements were added to the web apps which, with the right combination, made them progressively become more like apps. In 2015, this combination got named by Google as Progressive Web Apps (PWA) which allow users to add web apps to their home-screens and use them like native apps. PWAs can support being used offline, give notifications, use the device’s hardware and more. In this thesis, the compatibility, performance, security, privacy, and user/business impact of fundamental elements of PWA are researched through literature review and experimental analysis. Eight browsers are tested on four operating systems for compatibility of the Service Worker, Web App Manifest, add to home-screen ability and offline usage functionality. For performance, tests are done on a website called Fleet Management System (FMS) which is a track and trace system for Inter-Data Europe b.v. who will keep using the implementation and knowledge created from this study.
