ETP - Enhanced Tracking Protection
- Any difference between ETP on strict mode, or custom mode with all options turned on?
- If i use custom mode with tracking content disabled and the other options enabled, and rely on my hosts file to block ads, am i good?

On second reading this post seems a little more combative than I intended. You absolutely will reduce the surface that you are trackable on, so it’s a good thing, don’t let perfect get in the way of good enough. But your original post does ask if something is good enough, which begs the question, good enough for what? What’s the threat model
I’m not searching perfect.
I’m trying to understand if custom with system wide hosts is the same as strict. Obviously not exactly the same, because of the hosts i choose.
I’ve read lots of different info and can’t figure it out.
