## Changes

- [Added a separate toggle in settings to enable/disable JIT for **extensions**](48a42e213a) when JIT is otherwise disabled globally *(**Disabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Security` -> **`Enable JavaScript Just-in-time Compilation (JIT) for extensions`**.
- [Added support for natively enabling/disabling WebGL per-site](5e1acb19a6) via FPP overrides. **It is now recommended to disable the uBlock Origin `Block WebGL` lists** *(The `Block WebGL` lists will be removed from the uBlock Origin config entirely in the near future, but we're keeping them for now to ex. give users time to update)*. See [Notes](#notes) below for details, such as how you can manually allow desired websites to use WebGL.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable our default WebGL overrides](c9298799ee) *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable WebGL overrides from IronFox`**. When WebGL is enabled, this setting enables WebGL by default for certain websites, to reduce breakage/unexpected behavior. Note that this list is **NOT** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable spoofing the timezone to `UTC-0`](c8cb5064e4) *(**Disabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Spoof timezone to UTC-0`**.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable our default timezone overrides](c8cb5064e4) *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable timezone spoofing overrides from IronFox`**. When timezone spoofing is enabled, this setting disables timezone spoofing by default for certain websites, to reduce breakage/unexpected behavior. Note that this list is **NOT** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable *Mozilla's* default fingerprinting protection overrides](64e3706be8) to reduce website breakage *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable fingerprinting protection overrides from Mozilla`**. Note that this list **IS** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Added a toggle in settings to enable or disable *our* default fingerprinting protection overrides](64e3706be8) to reduce website breakage *(**Enabled** by default)*, located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Enable fingerprinting protection overrides from IronFox`**. This toggle does **not** disable fingerprinting protection overrides that we set to **harden** protection for certain websites. Note that this list is **NOT** fetched/updated remotely.
- [Implemented](522770b2dc) [Phoenix's extension blocklist](https://codeberg.org/celenity/Phoenix/src/branch/pages/build/policies/blocklist.json) to block malicious/phishing/sketchy extensions.
- [Locked Gecko preferences controlled by UI settings](bc9df5c52c) *(See [details](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/blob/dev/docs/FAQ.md#why-are-certain-preferences-locked))*.
- [Prevented the JIT toggle from controlling `javascript.options.main_process_disable_jit`](8171a4da48), as this pref is not required for JIT to function, and is preferable to leave on - even when JIT is enabled, to improve security.
- Updated to Firefox [`144.0`](https://firefox.com/firefox/android/144.0/releasenotes/).
- Updated microG to [`v0.3.10.250932`](https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.3.10.250932).
- Updated Phoenix to [`2025.10.12.1`](https://codeberg.org/celenity/Phoenix/releases/tag/2025.10.12.1).
- [Other minor tweaks, adjustments, and enhancements](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/merge_requests/92/diffs).

## Notes

You can manually allow websites to use WebGL with the `privacy.fingerprintingProtection.granularOverrides` preference at `about:config`. For instance, if I want to allow **`example.com`** to use WebGL, I would set the value of `privacy.fingerprintingProtection.granularOverrides` to:

```sh
[{"firstPartyDomain":"example.com","overrides":"-DisableWebGL"}]
```

If I *also* wanted to allow `example2.com`, I'd set the value to:

```sh
[{"firstPartyDomain":"example.com","overrides":"-DisableWebGL"},{"firstPartyDomain":"example2.com","overrides":"-DisableWebGL"}]
```

**[Please report websites that require WebGL to us if possible](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/issues)**, so that we can investigate and potentially add them to the default WebGL overrides list.
