Chrome plugins - is this a real Facebook ban cause?

Finding out from them would certainly tell for sure. Do you have access to another computer, maybe from a friend or something that you can try logging on and see if there are any issues? That would help rule out one or the other as the cause.

This thread started with a comment about Chrome plugins. It may be obvious to this thread’s readers, but Google has a deservedly bad reputation for merchandising/monetizing your activities with Chrome. Firefox is better on Windows (my choice) and DuckDuckGo’s anonymous searching and their so-called Privacy Browser are better choices on Android phones (one package at the Play Store). For the ultimate anonymity on Windows, search with DuckDuckGo.com and browse in the Tor Bundle which on my system uses Firefox. You can employ DuckDuckGo searches and click on the result links directly in the TB. Only the best at NSA are likely to be able to track you using those tools, and then only laboriously. NSA continues to advocate banning the TB along with public robust encryption.

I use Firefox. I think there is a need to monitor the browser/network area when something happens. It is too complicated and no one know. On the other hand, if we have in UE a RODO directive about copyright laws, there must be something to do that we can't report it anywhere. Facebook informs about their policy, but it is strange if I am afraid when I open my browser and say "Oh, if the kick me again". It is ridiculous.

No one knows if its keylogger or they are more advance in Facebook. For example, they dont block me, but sometimes need my photo. What for? Where can I get an information about an incident? Why they inform me about their policy?

I disabled two plugins on my FF: Ghostery and Privacy Budger. Because I think that it could do some problems. FF has got disabled cookies.
Now the browser inform me that I have to enable cookies on default. I refresh site and login without warning.

What do you think about Epic Privacy Browser?

Assuming you were directing your post toward my posting:

I don't know where you got those two plugins; FF came to me with only one plugin automatically attached: OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc. At any rate, I know nothing about Ghostery and Privacy Budger. I also run Shockwave Flash and Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc.

What do you think about Epic Privacy Browser?

I am totally unfamiliar with it.

As to your specific complaints about Facebook: I consider it dangerous and don't use it, so I can't comment. In fact I use none of what is generally considered to be social media. My purpose in joining this conversation was only to offer suggestions for searching and browsing as anonymously as possible on both Windows computers and Android phones.
