chrome-privacy

Basics

A dockerized Chrome in privacy mode, based in jfrazelle's Dockerfile.

It comes with

• Ghostery installed
• AdBlock Plus installed
• hardware acceleration disabled, as I had issues playing videos

chrome-priv.sh

You can symlink this file in you /usr/local/bin folder. It contains a docker run command which mounts your whole home directory within /home/chrome/parent_home of the container, so you can access it. Additionally, your Downloads folder is mounted to /home/chrome/Downloads so that new downloads will end up in the good spot.

The --rm argument is used which throws away the container when you exit Chrome.
