A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Have fun with the forced time zone obfuscation, messing up your scheduled messages and timestamps. !waterfox@programming.dev is where it's at.

forced

Enabled by default and "forced" are two different things. Your comment is misleading.

You have a couple of options:

  1. Turn off ResistFingerprinting and use something else if you want similar functionality, like CanvasBlocker
  2. Add trusted domains to privacy.resistFingerprinting.exemptedDomains in the about:config page.

When I say "forced," I mean that you shouldn't have to go into about:config to hunt for something that doesn't even say the phrase "time zone" in it to disable this. It should be openly in the browser's options. There should also be a warning about this; I read of no such notice when first firing it up. It came off as shady and an unwanted, initially forced "feature" that caused way more problems than it solved.
