Which privacy browser?

Next I make new VPN and it is SUPER safe!

The fancier the advertising hype a big company has about privacy, the more suspicious it sounds. In general, it’s worth familiarising yourself with how browser tracking and fingerprinting is set up.

hope i am not breaking any rules here. may be it helps to know who are we fighting against here

There’s too many stupid browsers period! Copies clones forks whatever you want to call them. Anything to get away from Google and Microsoft …I’m in!

I was just trying to offer something for iOS specifically. Can’t really be too picky when you’re using Apple products. You’re getting screwed either way in that situation.

That’s a good point, actually. On iOS it really doesn’t matter what you use, you can forget about privacy and security.

Hi guys!

First of all i would like to say “Thankyou!” to all the enthusiast involved in this project! fantastic!
I read some posts on this thread and actually i am using this setup:

  • Mullvad Browser and Firefox (Ublock Origin, Skip Redirect, I still don’t care about cookies, BitWarden, Firefox multi containers)
    *Using my browsers under Firejail has real benefits? or better run them under VirtualBox?

  • Mullvad Vpn (local net sharing off, DNS filters active, IPV6 off, kill switch and lockdown mode on, wireguard tunneling, obfuscation on, quantum tunnel on, multi hop off)

  • actually i am using BitWarden as psw manager, but i see that the concept behind KeepassXC is much safer (but will be a nightmare login somewhere with my iphone :/)

actually i am using Mega cloud for my “normal” files but i am interested to switch to Tresorit and store some more sensitive data.
if i create my home NAS could be more safe than both Providers?

What do you think? i am on the right way or i am moving wrong?

Thanks a lot!

Welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your time here.

The possibility is there, it’s just how you set it up.
If you are interested in a bare bones EnOS x86_64 install to base a headless server on

I would suggest hardening Firefox. Here’s an interesting video that gives you three alternatives to beef up security in Firefox.

Personally, I use the Betterfox option

Ungoogled Chromium has some hope; it claims to remove all of the “phone home to Google” stuff; it typically gets it’s updates within a few days of updates to the Chromium browser on which it’s based.

Some people also prefer LibreWolf, which is based on Firefox with many “Firefox” settings altered; for those who don’t trust Mozilla or Google, these might be useful options; investigate if you are curious.

Another forum has links to both of the browsers I mentioned -

This group at privacytests.org runs a battery of privacy tests against current browsers and posts results about every month or so. This may help someone reduce their potential browser set by a few.

So according to these tests, only three browsers offer decent privacy out of the box: Brave, LibreWolf, and Mullvad.

I have some trust issues with Brave, so my choice is LibreWolf.

I collected some data on this a while back and hardened Firefox was the most private browser you can get. You have to fine tune a lot of stuff with it.

I use LibreWolf as it provides good privacy defaults for me and the team behind it is passionate about privacy.
