Recaptcha is definitely one of the big reasons I have Google domains blocked from loading up on uBO/Firefox, or as I call it, uBO plus Firefox.

That's a huge chunk of the internet you're filtering there, including plenty of legitimate sites. Care to explain why you dislike Recaptcha in particular that much?

Huge chunk... not really. People like me who are hardcore into privacy always knew Google uses it as free data training, and to track users across the whole internet. I do not like either reasons. Unless I MUST for unavoidable reason with no alternative, I will keep things that way.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
