any good private browser?
|
| For mobile I really recommend Firefox focus
| >>101650 I think it doesnt have a private mode as it was designed to be a private browser but check it out
| and for pc?
| Firefox incognito mode
| ^ mobile Firefox can take add-ons too so stack that with https everywhere and ublock possibly noscript and privacy badger and you should be pretty private
| ^ Yes do exactly that. I do the same thing
| Firefox <3
| I use Chrome and I don't care
| On mobile I'm just using the browser that ships with lineage os... On my windows laptop I use waterfox with a couple of privacy related add-ons.
| Also Brave with incognito mode is really good, the browser itself comes with an in built ad blocker, https everywhere, finger print protection, etc. Totally recommended. Mobile and desktop versions available.
| brave all the way motherfucker
| Firefox
| I use brave for mobile and for desktop Firefox with noscript, block coin miners, untrackme and smart https
| Tor?
| PrivacyTools.io
| If you are not a criminal use Chrome
| >>105301 begone google shill
Use Firefox and install privacy/security-oriented addons like HTTPS Everywhere, uMatrix and uBlock Origin
| If you don't want to use tor, Brave is the best option imo
| tor is slow
| >>107779
A compromise for security. Those relay nodes and multiple points of obsfucation, amongst others, add latency and inherently make the system slower.
>>107797
It's actually safer, but no system is truly safe.
| orfox is a thing that exists
| Chromium is free as in freedom and price
| just switched to fire fox and https everywhere. feeling good. Any other basic security upgrades for my life?
| Fire fox
| Brave, you don't need any extra applications, you can change everything in the settings.
Or Firefox with Privacy Badger, No Script and ublock.
| hey come to think of it, why do we the commoners need to worry about cyber security? I don't have any government secrets, I don't do anything illegal
| >>109199 because when the government changes and the rules with it, you might wish they didn't know what you've done
| thw company you work for/apply to might fire or reject you based on what you browsed years ago
| What about armorfly for android?
| >>109220
Now that you said that it really made me shiver just thinking about it what they could possibly find out about me.
| >>109220
if a company tries to search for your history and finds nothing, isn't that suspicious? I guess I would tell them "oops sorry that's a side affect of protecting my passwords"
| dude, i was curious about "ethical hacking" and naturally browse around the topic for about two days on my phone, then when i log into facebook, guess what, an ad, udemy course on ethical hacking come out of nowhere (it doesnt even fit my facebook profile, I believe I never even type the word "hack" into facebook). I even used a separate app for facebook
| I use Commodo Dragon. It comes with its own VPN.

Congrats, you discovered yourself the mechanism of advertising ID. Usually, big websites that provide ads, such as Facebook and Google, would tag you with specific (resettable) ID. This ID is what you carry around with your account, and whenever an advertising site needs to target a specific audience, the ID provides them with these informations.
The ID ties heavily to your activity on the net. Your search queries, the sites you often visit, etc.
| Brave Browser for the privacy, can add a VPN on top of that
| I love how Firefox can play YouTube videos in the background on Android
| What you guys think about Midori browser?
| >>112035
Extremely lightweight.
I run it on a 9 year old laptop with Lubuntu installed and it's splendid.
| Midori could've been good, but it never really fully developed. Pretty sure they haven't released an update in awhile.
| I use Armorfly on phone for the hi-tech look, and Brave on laptop.
| GNU Icecat
| I use firefox for just normal browsing, chrome for when I need to use a google service or sign into any account, and brave for ( ° ͜ʖ °)
>Also if anyone is looking to wipe themselves from the internet as best they can but don't know where to start this will guide you through it:

| Fire fox became shit after some update, I recommend opera or chrome. Chrome consume a lot o ram, opera isn't that fast to open.
| >>115997
God no, don't use Opera.
Opera is about as private as clicking the "do not track" button on all web browsers and assuming that, by having that button pressed, websites will simply "not track" you.
| >>107892
Tor is only safe insofar as the owners of the nodes you're using don't decide to report your activities to the FBI.
So... not really anymore safe than the average VPN.
| Vivaldi is my current fav
| >>109220 oh no. Hopefully the new disease that is playing video games can get me on the neetbux list then, if that's the case.
