What is RequestPolicy?
RequestPolicy is an extension for Mozilla browsers that enhances the privacy and security of your browsing experience by providing control over cross-site requests made by the webpages you visit. It is the first comprehensive client-side solution to protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks and the initial tool to enable the use of modern browsers without cross-site information leakage

- Defaults to denying cross-site requests, with users notified when requests are blocked
