Apple confirm again this year that you care very much privacy policy of users who use the company's devices and services. After they announced that it had started “CLEAN” in App Store, being targeted in the first place applications and games care does not respect confidentiality private data of those who download and use them, together withmacOS High Sierra it also comes with a measure to protect users' online identity.
This time, Apple is making significant changes internet browseracquis Safari. Too little used, even among Mac users (by the way, Apple has discontinued Safari support for Windows), even if it is a very safe and very stable browser. We have been using it as the default browser on Mac for many years and we have no reason to complain. With the upcoming update to Safari on the new one macOS High Sierra, is an additional reason to use this Internet browser more and more, when we check our mail, when we browse websites that have media content or when we simply search for something on the Internet.

New capabilities of Safari on macOS High Sierra

Intelligent tracking prevention

First of all, as Apple says, the new Safari will be able to intelligently prevent tracking. What does this tracking refer to and what does it help or not help? Then when you access a website or when you search the Internet through Google or when search for something on Facebook, through tracking, sensitive data is stored on advertising delivery networks. Aceste date sunt folosite ulterior (in mod automat, desigur) pentru a va livra rezultate si reclame apropiate de ce anume ati cautat dvs. Astfel, daca o sa cautati pe internetbiciclete verzi, si o sa accesati un site de profil, in urmatoarele zile, pe multe din advertising spaces ale site-urilor pe care le accesati, or sa va apara reclame la biciclete. Chiar daca dvs. nu o sa mai fiti pe un site de profil in acel moment sau daca nu o sa mai intereseze o bicicleta verde.
Acest lucru este posibil prin manipularea cookies. Informatii stocate de website-urile pe care le accesati, iar cu ajutorul carora se poate urmari foarte usor comportamentul online al dvs.

To avoid such situations, the new Safari will include by default a module that intelligently prevents tracking. It will identify you advertising agencies and other entities that store user data and will remove them.

As a clarification, the new function will not be a ads-blocker, but only a technology will be used that will no longer allow advertising agencies to store personal data through which your online behavior will be tracked.

Automatic stop of videos with audio

This was really a stressful thing. Let's access a web page and automatically start a video or a video advertisement with sound.
The new version of Safari automatically stop videos with sound, iat din setari pot fi predefinite site-urile pe care dorim ca pornirea videoclipurilor sa se faca automat. Nu stiu ce ar dori cineva acest lucru, insa Apple ne da aceasta posibilitate.

Se adauga si alte optiuni personalizate in functie de website-ul pe care-l accesati.

Posibilitatea de a folosi “Reader” by default cand accesat website-ul, blocarea continutului neadecvat. optiuni de control Camera, Microfon si Locatie. Tot de aici se poate stabili auto-play pentru continutul media.

Pornirea automata a modului “Reader” la accesarea unei pagini web

Personal, folosesc acest mod inca de cand a fost introdus pentru prima data pe Safari. Modul “reader” elimina reclamele, elementele grafice, meniurile si alte elemente din pagina web accesata. Lasa doar titlul si continutul, negru pe alb. Usor de citit.

We all know that there are many sites where excessive advertisements put even the strongest nerves to the test. We are not against advertisements, but we have a problem when they become suffocating. It's no secret that sports websites are full of advertisements and announcements. For these sites it is the good function “reader” from Safari. This is how a page chosen at random from sport.ro looks like, without the reader activated.

As a little bonus, the video content started automatically.

This is how the same web page looks like with the reader activated.

It seems that the text is also seen. In the first screen I had to do it “scroll” down to get to the title.

The function “Reader” it can only be activated on compatible web pages that are article pages. Not allowing navigation in the module “Reader”, this function is not available for the website index (first page) or for archive and category pages.

All these novelties will be available with the launch macOS High Sierra.
