mp68terr Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Mullvad recently appeared. The Mullvad Browser is a privacy-focused web browser developed in a collaboration between Mullvad VPN and the Tor Project. It’s designed to minimize tracking and fingerprinting.

Kalju Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Brave is not Browser, Brave is only one "Derivative" of Chromium which one is itself in turn is one of "Derivatives" of Safari. That's the simple Chemistry if somebody don't understand. Edited June 23, 2023 by Kalju Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

virge Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 DuckDuckGo Online is what I use as my homepage within Brave. The worst browsers are Chrome and Edge. https://duckduckgo.com/. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better idea would be to shift focus from Browser to a good AdBlocker like AdGuard or uBlock . . . there's not much scope for security when depending merely on the Browser (anyways, the AdBlocker configuration over-rides the Browser config.)
