RequestPolicy is a Firefox extension that gives you control over cross-site requests. It does this through user-defined whitelists and blacklists. Users can also subscribe to policies (whitelists and blacklists) maintained by others.

For more information about RequestPolicy and cross-site requests, have a look at our website

The RequestPolicy "Continued" project is a fork of RequestPolicy, which had been developed by Justin Samuel until 2012. Currently we aim at releasing our first stable version – 1.0 – but there is still much to do. If you want to be informed about this milestone, you could subscribe to this issue. If you're interested, here you can find a list of all open issues for version 1.0.

If you'd like to download the RequestPolicy source code from our version control system, you can do so with:

git clone https://github.com/RequestPolicyContinued/requestpolicy.git

Before building you need to install GNU Make, Zip and preprocess.py. On a debian-based system you could run:

sudo apt-get install make zip preprocess

After preparation, run make from the repository's root directory. The XPI file will be created at dist/requestpolicy.xpi and can be used for easy installation of RP into your web browser (e.g. Firefox).
