.DON'T FALL VICTIM TO DATA BREACHES & IDENTITY THEFT-- LET BLUR MASK YOUR PERSONAL INFO ONLINE

Abine Blur Premium Privacy Protection

Blur brings you the ultimate online privacy solution by allowing you to create temporary, masked email addresses, credit card numbers, and phone numbers so you’ll never have to give your personal data to online merchants again.

Why Blur?

Blur was designed to help you surf and shop the Web in total privacy. It does this via browser plug-ins (available for Chrome, Firefox, IE, Opera andSafari) that afford four main features: password management, masked email addresses, masked credit cards, and tracker blocking.

Features of Blur: Do Not Track

Your Web surfing habits are your own business, right? But in truth, advertisers, social media sites, and Web analytics groups all profit by tracking where you go on the Web. Your browser can send a Do Not Track header, but websites can choose to ignore it. Abine pioneered the idea of a Do Not Track system that actively prevents this kind of tracking.

Features of Blur: Do Not Track

For each website you visit, the Blur toolbar button in the browser displays how many trackers it detected and blocked. Clicking the button brings up an access panel for Blur services; clicking Tracking in that panel displays full details. You can see exactly which ad aggregators, social media sites, and Web analytics systems were prevented from tracking you. This panel also lets you turn off blocking for any specific tracker, or for an entire website. Clicking a link opens a chart of your tracker-blocking statistics over time.

Features of Blur: Password Management

Blur includes a straightforward password manager. As expected, it captures credentials when you log in and automatically fills saved credentials when you revisit the site. If you've saved more than one set of credentials, it autofills the first. This confused me at first, but I found that when I highlighted the username field, Blur offered a menu of available logins.

Features of Blur: Password Management (Cont’d)

If you forget your master password, you can create a new one, but you'll lose all your saved passwords. To avoid that awkward situation, Blur generates what it calls a "Backup Passphrase." Mine consisted of 12 words, more than 80 characters. You can use this passphrase to regain access to your passwords in emergency. Abine suggests you store it securely.

Features of Blur : Mobile Support

You can install Blur on your Android or iOS phone or tablet and sync your data through Dropbox. Syncing is seamless, once you've set it up on your desktop. You get all the same features as the desktop edition. As with many mobile password managers, you must use Blur's built-in browser to access password features.

The mobile edition adds one new feature—a masked phone number. Unlike masked emails and credit cards, the masked phone number is a singular new phone number that forwards calls, texts, and voicemails to your actual phone number. When filling Web forms, you can click "Mask My Phone" to enter the masked number.

Testimonials

“People who are feeling uneasy about using their credit cards (…) might find solace in (Blur),” Hayley Peterson, Business Insider

Pros

Prevents advertisers from tracking your browsing. Manages passwords. Masked email addresses help block spam. Masked credit cards protect your card number. Masked phone number blocks unwanted callers.

Cons

Requires giving a lot of private data to Abine. Password generator not fully configurable. Did not always fill Web forms correctly in testing.

Bottom Line

Abine Blur lets you shop online without revealing your actual email address, phone number, or credit card number. It's an impressive solution for online privacy.

You can surf the Web anonymously using a VPN or TOR, but when it comes to making purchases, you have to tell the website where to send the merchandise. You'll also need to enter your email address, and credit card information. Abine Blur does an admirable job of preserving your privacy throughout this process. There's nothing else quite like it. Blur is an Editors' Choice for privacy protection.
