  Scan any website for privacy risks and trim long-lived tracking cookies — locally, on every visit.
  
  wearehere is a local privacy scanner that audits the site you're on and acts on what it finds.
  
  Every visit gets a privacy score and a plain-language breakdown of:
  • who's watching — third-party trackers, ad networks, analytics, data brokers
  • cookies — count, category (necessary vs marketing/analytics), expiry, owner
  • fingerprinting — canvas, audio, WebGL, hardware probes
  • dark patterns — manipulative UI, hidden consents, default opt-ins
  • terms of service — hostile clauses fetched and scanned from the live ToS page
  • network traffic — every third-party domain the page contacted
  • form surveillance — fields that leak before you submit
  • link tracking — outbound URLs decorated with tracker parameters
  
  It doesn't just observe. The built-in cookie scoper trims long-lived cookies to a configurable expiry
  and demotes known analytics/advertising cookies to session-only — so trackers can't recognise you tomorrow. Trusted sites are kept fully functional.
  
  The dashboard rolls everything up: who follows you across the web, what changed this window, how the scoper has reshaped your cookie jar over time.
  
  Nothing leaves the browser. No accounts, no telemetry, no remote rule lists. All analysis runs
  locally and all data stays in chrome.storage.local.
  
  Open source: Apache-2.0.

  Scan any site for privacy risks, blur your device fingerprint, and trim tracking cookies — all
  locally, on every visit.

  • network traffic — every third-party domain the page contacted
  • form surveillance — fields that leak before you submit
  • link tracking — outbound URLs decorated with tracker parameters
  
  It doesn't just observe — it acts on what it finds, in two ways:
  
  • Cookie scoper — trims long-lived cookies to a 7-day cap and demotes known analytics and
  advertising cookies to session-only, so trackers can't recognise you tomorrow. Runs in the
  background on a schedule you choose; sites you trust are left fully functional.
  
  • Fingerprint blurring — feeds trackers slightly-wrong, per-site answers for canvas, audio, WebGL, fonts and device details, so the same browser reads as a different device on every site it can't link together. On by default, with a per-site disguise that rotates weekly to stop long-term profiling. If a site misbehaves under it, one click trusts that site and turns blurring off there.
  
  The dashboard rolls everything up: who follows you across the web, what changed this window, and how the scoper has reshaped your cookie jar over time.
  
  Honest about the limits: blurring raises the cost of tracking, it doesn't make you invisible — it won't beat privacy-focused browsers or bank-grade anti-fraud, and wearehere doesn't block ads or requests (pair it with uBlock Origin for that).
  
  Nothing leaves the browser. No accounts, no telemetry, no remote rule lists. All analysis runs
  locally and all data stays in your browser's local storage.
