2024-07-28 Stefan After installing it I tried with various sites that show the referer, it works (show referer = "blank") The only flaw is that the icon on the bar is not visible (it seems transparent) but this is not a big problem. I wish a plugin like this was available as standard on Firefox.

2022-10-04 Firefox user 15695248 It works perfectly! Thank you for this great addon
2020-03-25 Jerry Simple and easy. Works as expected but it should be nice to have a whitelist and a choice of different SVG images.

2019-06-27 Firefox user 15093646 Works flawlessly as advertised, but I suggest some configuration option to finetune its behaviour: reset to a selectable default state when opening a window, and a whitelist/blacklist scheme. Some sites refuse to work without the proper referrer (authentications for the most part) while on others I don't want to leave it on by mistake. Configurable spoofing might be nice to have too, but probably isn't worth the complication.

2018-05-29 Firefox user 11783868 New change is bad. Please add an option to disable Spoofed mode as a toggle and an option not to save button state. I'll update my review. Thanks.
2018-05-21 grahamperrin Very nice! Working with a whitelist would be nicer. As suggested in my previous review, https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/referrer-switch/reviews/1119735/ Thanks again ---- Postscript, 2019-12-29: now using Smart Referer, https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/smart-referer/
