FoxAI Browser v1.8.0

v1.8.0 — Full leak & hardening audit, faster network, FoxAI Hub

Verified live: 4/4 egress reflectors agree on one IP, HTTP:// is force-upgraded to HTTPS://, referrer is empty, and RFP masks are confirmed active on web pages (UA/language/platform/plugins, timezone=UTC, hardwareConcurrency=2, WebRTC & Network Info & Battery & sendBeacon all gone, WebGL off, media devices blocked).

Hardening (user.js + foxai.cfg)

• Resist Fingerprinting fully on: timezone->UTC, canvas/screen fuzzed, timer precision reduced, canvas prompt auto-decline.
• All phone-home connections killed: app update off, extension auto-update off, Normandy/Shield studies off, region lookup URL cleared, captive-portal detection off, connectivity service off, What's New / about:welcome / Firefox View off, screenshots off, add-on recommendations off, Firefox Suggest off, remote debugging off.
• Fingerprint vectors closed: vibrator, gamepad, video stats; third-party storage + service workers partitioned; TLS 0-RTT off; certificate-pinning enforcement 2.
• uBlock + Safe Browsing remote reporting already off.

Performance

• Speculative connects off, 1200 max connections / 9 per server, disk cache 512 MB, sessionstore every 3 min, session history capped, history disabled, faster start (no default-browser check, no reset prompt).

FoxAI Hub

• New-tab has a 🧩 Hub button next to the gear; the website gained a #hub section (release, source, changelog, feedback, leak-test kit, quick start).

Tests

• New tests/test-06-hardening.ps1 = big live audit + 70-pref static audit across BOTH config files. Suite is now 6/6.

FoxAI Browser v1.7.0

v1.7.0 — Launcher + auto-updater

The release zip now comes with a launcher at the zip root (next to firefox-foxai):

• FoxAI Browser.cmd — double-click to start the browser (no console window). Path-relative: move/unzip the folder anywhere.
• FoxAI Update.cmd — checks GitHub, downloads the newest release, installs it and relaunches. Your profile is preserved (settings, notes, logins).
• FoxAI-Launcher.ps1 — the engine, with -Launch / -Private / -Check / -Update / -Version switches.
• version.txt — written by the build so the launcher knows the local version.

Verified: -Check talks to the GitHub API and compares versions correctly; the update flow downloads, validates, swaps and restores the profile end-to-end (tested against this release).

FoxAI Browser v1.6.0

v1.6.0 — Built-in SOCKS5 proxy

Route all traffic through a SOCKS5 proxy (Settings → Proxy → toggle + host + port) so IP leak tests show the proxy address instead of the real one.

• SOCKS5 (and HTTP via storage) proxying through browser.proxy.onRequest, live-updated from settings.
• No silent direct fallback: if the proxy is unreachable, requests fail rather than leaking your IP.
• Proxy DNS for SOCKS5 (domains resolved through the proxy).
• Verified: with a dead proxy example.com fails; with the proxy off it loads; a local test proxy receives the CONNECT.
• Fixed a background.js SyntaxError (duplicate let) that had silently disabled the background (context-menu/screenshot/proxy features).

Release zip: FoxAI-Browser-v1.6.0.zip (portable, Firefox ESR base).

FoxAI Browser v1.5.1

Leak-test fix pass. DNS-over-HTTPS on (browserleaks/dnsleaktest now show Cloudflare, not your ISP). WebRTC verified No Leak. Fingerprinting+cryptomining blocking lists on. WebRTC ICE defence-in-depth. Safe Browsing remote reporting off (URL fragments no longer sent to Google/Mozilla). Note: your public IP always shows in leak tests without a VPN — that is your internet connection, not a browser leak.
