1536488 - Tracking-annotation should use strict list always

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Privacy: Anti-Tracking, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Andrea Marchesini [:baku]]

The difference between strict and basic tracking list is about the content-tracking table. In this bug, I would like to use the content-tracking table always, and to have a separate pref to decide when we want to consider it to detect trackers.

If a channel's URL is found in the content-tracking list, it will be classified using nsIHttpChannel::ClassificationFlags::CLASSIFIED_TRACKING_CONTENT. But nsIHttpChannel::IsTrackingResource() would return false if we are in basic-tracking-list mode.

Hi Baku, can you uplift this to beta for Bug 1541238, Bug 1542069, and Bug 1533363?

Tanvi, what do you think about this uplift? I suspect it could break some shield studies.

We are no longer going to try to uplift the other bugs so we don't need to uplift this one.
