So what's the best web browser to use in terms of privacy without using TOR?
Web Browsers
Chrome
lynx
Firefox. Add Cookie Auto Delete, uBlock Origin, and set it to never remember logins or history. Turn off telemetry.
>and set it to never remember logins or history.
This mostly seems like a closing-your-browser-if the-fbi-comes-knocking defense than actual privacy.
>Turn off telemetry.
whoa helpful post
(Not OP; I was the lazy shitpost first reply)
lol yeah i have firefox with ublock origin, privacy badger and HTTPS everywhere. not that im worried about the fbi, but i hate the thought of the nsa or something actually spying on me
>delete cookies
falkon. This is not up for debate.
>privacy badger
addons.mozilla.org
>Protects your privacy by blocking spying ads and invisible trackers.
As a fairly ignorant tech user, if I install this will it "just werk" and make my experience better for myself behind the scenes?
Also on the HTTPS everywhere addon, I thought I saw a thread on that once where it was compared with another addon like it. There was a lot of talk of one of them only changing the "http" to "https", which might break pages. But the other was dismissed hard by many as being bloat. Which one of them is this, and is it the better one? I have no context for either being good, but I want an "it just werks" something to install if possible.
Oh no! All of that can be disabled, either through GUI or in about:config!! What am I gonna do?!?
