Hey folks!<\/strong> You’re reading the free version of Advisorator, providing a tip and a deal in your inbox each week. Become a member<\/strong><\/a> to get in-depth feature articles, extra tips, more deals, and personalized advice from me.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mozilla just came up with a compelling new reason to use Firefox, at least for private browsing. With a new feature called SmartBlock<\/a>, Firefox essentially spoofs the tracking scripts that websites use while following you around the web, allowing those sites to function properly even when their trackers don’t. The result should be faster browsing and more privacy, all without the page load issues you sometimes encounter with third-party blockers like uBlock Origin<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By default, SmartBlock is only enabled if you\u2019re browsing in a private window, since some websites might still break while the feature is enabled. But if you\u2019re feeling bold and want it to run it in all your browser windows, just hit the Firefox’s menu button, then select Options and click Privacy & Security. From this menu, set your tracking protection level to \u201cStrict.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To disable these protections for individual sites that aren\u2019t working properly, you can always tap the Shield icon at the top-left of your address bar and toggle off the \u201cEnhanced Tracking Protections\u201d slider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Spend wisely<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Amazon’s latest Echo Show 10 smart display is on sale for the first time<\/a>, dropping to $210 instead of the usual $250. As with previous Echo Shows, the screen lets you watch videos, make video calls, view photos that you’ve stored with Amazon, and get visual responses to your Alexa queries. But unlike previous models, this one has a swiveling screen that automatically follows you around the room as you talk to it. Amazon also has a bunch of other Alexa devices on sale<\/a>, including the Echo Dot with Clock for $45<\/a> and the Echo Show 8 for $75<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
