I just ran into this - my son was trying to watch a Minecraft-related Youtube video and because Firefox sends the Prefer:Safe header, YouTube wouldn't let him watch it. So I installed Chrome and now he doesn't have any issues with content being blocked. Interesting that Chrome doesn't support it, but YouTube does. Seems that Google found the sweet spot.
Good luck with the feature. - Bil -----Original Message----- From: dev-privacy [mailto:dev-privacy-bounces+bil.corry=owasp....@lists.mozilla.org] On Behalf Of beezlesn...@gmail.com Sent: Sunday, October 05, 2014 8:57 PM To: dev-privacy@lists.mozilla.org Subject: Re: Prefer:Safe in Firefox Please see this question I posted on the support forums: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1023771 This is a very heavy-handed approach you're taking with this. I do not want to filter what my kids see on the web. The only reason I have parental controls enabled is to enforce time limits on the computer use. The only options I have to get around this are to either disable parental controls (unacceptable), or to tell them to use Google Chrome, which does not exhibit this behavior. I don't mind that you're adding this feature. But you either need to put something in so that it can be disabled, or only make it take effect if any web content restrictions are applied. If there are no content restrictions, do not send the header. _______________________________________________ dev-privacy mailing list dev-privacy@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-privacy
