## About
A web extension that redirects *Twitter, YouTube, Instagram & Google Maps* requests to privacy friendly alternatives - [Nitter](https://github.com/zedeus/nitter), [Invidious](https://github.com/iv-org/invidious), [FreeTube](https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube), [Bibliogram](https://sr.ht/~cadence/bibliogram/) & [OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/).

It's possible to toggle all redirects on and off. The extension will default to using random instances if none are selected. If these instances are not working, you can try and set a custom instance from the list below.

### Custom instances
Privacy Redirect allows setting custom instances, instances can be found here:
- [Nitter instances](https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances)
- [Invidious instances](https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/wiki/Invidious-Instances)
- [Bibliogram instances](https://git.sr.ht/~cadence/bibliogram-docs/tree/master/docs/Instances.md)
- [OpenStreetMap tile servers](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_servers)

## License

Code released under the free and open-source [MIT license](LICENSE.txt).

## Permissions

Please note, access to all website navigation events ( all URLs), not just the target domains, is required to allow embedded video redirects to occur. At this time I know of no other way to achieve iframe redirects, happy to hear some suggestions on this though 🙂
