<br/>
<br/><b>New</b>
<br/>
<br/>[Status: experimental] A new button ("puzzle" piece icon) is available in the popup panel: uMatrix will offer you the ability to import community-contributed ruleset recipes which are relevant to the current page (see #30). Hopefully there will be <a rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/tree/master/recipes">many contributions to populate ruleset recipes</a> ready to be used to unbreak sites.
<br/>
<br/>A tooltip has been added to the global scope selector (<code>*</code>) in the popup panel.
<br/>
<br/>A new setting has been added in the <em>Settings</em> pane: <em>"Disable tooltips"</em>.
<br/>
<br/><b>Changes</b>
<br/>
<br/>The setting <em>"Show the number of distinct requests on the icon"</em> has been changed to <em>"Show the number of blocked resources on the icon"</em>: the number of blocked resources is much more useful than the number of distinct resources. This will make it clear now that uMatrix is still blocking stuff even after you <em>think</em> you had configured it to no longer block stuff (example: #938).
<br/>
<br/>The icon badge is back to being enabled by default with new installations of uMatrix.

Complete release notes for 1.2.0 available <a rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/releases/tag/1.2.0">here</a>.
<br/>
<br/><b>Changes</b>
<br/>
<br/><b>Appearance</b>
<br/>
<br/>More choices of text size for the matrix UI in the <em>Settings</em> pane (text size dictates the popup panel size).
<br/>
<br/><b>Per-scope switches</b>
<br/>
<br/><b>New switch: "Forbid web workers"</b>
<br/>
<br/>Purpose should be obvious.
<br/>
<br/>Note that nuisance coin miners typically use web workers, so forbidding web workers globally might be a good idea, though mind that there are legitimate use for web workers. Keep in mind many of these miners are launched as 1st-party, so the new switch allows you to forbid them even when you allow 1st-party scripts.
<br/>
<br/>uMatrix is able to detect when a web worker is being instantiated. However, this does not work for Firefox 57-58, but works fine in Firefox 59 (Nightly). The reason is that <a rel="nofollow" href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SecurityPolicyViolationEvent">SecurityViolationPolicyEvent</a> has been <a rel="nofollow" href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1037335">implemented just recently in Nightly</a>.
<br/>
<br/>So this means if you are using uMatrix with Firefox 57-58, uMatrix will be unable to report to you whether web workers are used by a page, though you will be able to block these fine with the new per-scope switch. With Nightly, use (or attempt to use) web workers is properly reported in the logger and in the popup panel.
<br/>
<br/><b>Per-scope switches redesigned and renamed</b>
<br/>
<br/><em>"Strict HTTPS"</em> has been renamed <em>"Forbid mixed content"</em>: I see too many instances of people thinking this feature is a replacement for <em>HTTPS Everywhere</em>: it is not.
<br/>
<br/>The new visual will now convey whether a switch is relevant for the current document. A dot in the toggle button means that the switch is relevant, i.e. uMatrix may affect the page if the switch is toggled on.
<br/>
<br/><ul><li><em>Forbid mixed content</em>: a dot means that mixed content has been detected on the page.</li><li><em>Forbid web workers</em>: a dot means that web workers have been detected on the page (as mentioned above, the <em>detection</em> does not work for Firefox 57-58).</li><li><em>Spoof <code>referer</code> header</em>: a dot means that 3rd-party referrer information has been seen in network traffic.</li><li><em>Spoof <code><noscript></code> tags</em>: a dot means <code><noscript></code> tags have been detected in the current page.</li></ul>
<br/>I added info links to each per-scope switch: the links are pages from Mozilla Developer Network, so this gives a chance for the page to load in the user locale.
<br/>
<br/><b>Logger</b>
<br/>
<br/>Ability to open the logger in the sidebar.
<br/>
<br/>Note that since the logger is unified, should you open additional logger views, these will be left unused, until the first view is closed. By design.
<br/>

<h2>uMatrix 1.1.20 - Dec. 13, 2017</h2>
Summary of <a rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/releases/tag/1.1.20">Release notes for 1.1.20</a>
<br/>
<br/><b>Changes: Settings</b>
<br/>
<br/>A new option in the <em>Settings</em> pane, as requested in #335:
<br/>
<br/> [x] Collapse placeholder of blacklisted elements
<br/>
<br/>Checked by default.
<br/>
<br/>The purpose of this new setting should be obvious: it makes it possible to collapse discriminately elements according to whether they were blocked as a result of a hostname being blacklisted or as a result for a more generic block rule.
<br/>
<br/>For example, 3rd-party iframes are blocked by default. But you may not want embedded Youtube videos to be collapsed, while on the other hand you may want embedded ads from some blacklisted origins to be visually collapsed. The new settings allows to distinguish between <em>blocked</em> and <em>blacklisted</em>.
<br/>
<br/><b>Changes: Logger</b>
<br/>
<br/>The logger will now inform when uMatrix removes/modifies HTTP headers:
<br/>
<br/><ul> <li>An uppercase <code>COOKIE</code> entry means that an outgoing <code>Cookie</code> header was removed;
<br/> </li><li>An uppercase <code>REFERER</code> entry means that an outgoing <code>Referer</code> header was modified;</li></ul>
<br/>These are reported only for network request of type <code>doc</code>, so as to not spam logger output since referrer spoofing and cookie header removal can occur for every single network request.

<br/>
<br/><b>Changes</b>
<br/>
<br/>The <em>Privacy</em> pane has been merged into the <em>Settings</em> pane in the dashboard.
<br/>
<br/><b>Privacy-wise flawed user agent switcher removed</b>
<br/>
<br/>User agent spoofing as been removed. This was <a rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/issues/771#issuecomment-297524209">planned since a long while</a>. The bottom line is that user agent spoofing for privacy purpose is best left to a dedicated extension, and really your best choice privacy-wise is probably to rely on Firefox's recent fingerprinting-resistance feature.
<br/>
<br/><b><code><noscript></code> tags</b>
<br/>
<br/>A new global setting has been added in the dashboard: <em>"Spoof <code><noscript></code> tags when 1st-party scripts are blocked"</em>. Disabled by default so as to not change uMatrix's current behavior.
<br/>
<br/>Since spoofing <code><noscript></code> is not necessarily always desirable, the global setting can be overridden on a per-scope basis with the <em>"<code><noscript></code> tag spoofing"</em> switch.
<br/>
<br/>This feature is most useful to users who <a rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/wiki/How-to-block-1st-party-scripts-everywhere-by-default">block 1st-party scripts by default</a>.
<br/>
<br/>Note that this might be the long term approach used for enabling <code><noscript></code> tags: the approach planned by Firefox is not really suitable to uMatrix, as this would require to completely disable javascript for a site (causing the matrix ruleset to be disregarded), while with the current approach, one can still enable 3rd-party scripts and yet have the <code><noscript></code> tags spoofed.
<br/>
<br/>I have observed that the feature behave slightly differently on Firefox than on Chromium: Firefox will not react to <code><meta http-equiv="refresh"></code> tags, while Chromium does. I do believe this can be fixed, and I will experiment more with this.

<br/><b>Blocked root document</b>
<br/>
<br/>Ability to parse the URL of blocked document has been imported from uBO:

<br/>
<br/>Unlike uBO however, the parsed URL information is expanded by default since uMatrix is meant for advanced users (you can collapse it by clicking on the magnifier).
<br/>
<br/><b>Logger</b>
<br/>
<br/>Ability to open the logger in its own (popup) window, just as with uBO. If you want the logger to be in its own separate window, press <code>Shift</code> while clicking the <em>logger</em> icon will cause the logger to always be launched as a separate window. You do not need to press the <code>Shift</code> next time, it's only used to toggle between both attached/detached states.
