In reply to: Admin canvas tracking“As already mentioned, you can “turn this off” by not using emoji/smilies or the embedded video player in your posts”
As Sergei mentioned it here : https://core.trac.ww.wp.xz.cn/ticket/32138
There’s a plugin that disable emoji https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/disable-emojis/Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Admin canvas trackingI agree it’s a bit over-paranoid for a lot of us, but people using tor feel concerned with that kind of warning… in some countries they are right to be over-paranoid.

In reply to: Admin canvas trackingThe fact is since 4.2, you don’t even need to be logged to get the warning 😉

In reply to: Admin canvas trackingAs explained here https://reflets.info/avertissement-de-confidentialite-sur-wordpress-4-2/ (sorry it’s in french), i really trust WordPress enough, but the fact is Tor browser detects it like a possible privacy issue by default and gives a prompt to allow or block it. The issue points the hash of the rendered image which can be used as tracking cookie.

In reply to: Admin canvas trackingHello,
I tried to investigate a little. The fact is this might be a privacy issue related to the 4.2 update. The warning occurs with an uptodate TorBrowser on every 4.2.
So i tried to deactivate all my plugins and switch to fifty* themes, on several wordpress. The warning still occurs on 4.2, but not on 4.1.2.
Looking further, this might be connected with gravatars or emoji integration in wordpress.
