You're on limited data on a pc? You're being completely and absurdly scammed.

There is no way to save data, every time you go on a website you will download everything to display the content. The only thing you can do is turn off images/dont click on anything that you know will display images.

"You're being completely and absurdly scammed."..why you think that?

I am using mobile tathering so i can use internet on pc, mobile browers are very good in saving data by images compression for example, why this feature can't be implemented in pc browersers??,

@saher090 Because you shouldnt use mobile data for your pc, what are you doing?

That's not how it works. You need to download the entire image, your browser can not compress any image before it is fully downloaded. It then saves the compressed image on your phone to save memory, not surf data.
