So let's set some foundations: Chrome and Chromium are google botnet. That's obvious. Brave has recently been discovered to be making major compromises despite their claimed focus on privacy. They're botnet. bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/facebook-twitter-trackers-whitelisted-by-brave-browser/ Firefox has built-in telemetry. This can to some extent be disabled by the user, through the micromanagement of dozens upon dozens of about:config and user.js values. Firefox is also notorious for slipping in stuff behind users' backs. Never forget this. itsfoss.com/firefox-looking-glass-controversy/ ghacks.net/2017/10/06/mozilla-to-launch-firefox-cliqz-experiment-with-data-collecting/ It would seem that Moz://a doesn't have any concept of 'opt-in'. If they're willing to do this shit without telling users, what makes you think they won't silently revert your config changes and pass it off as one of their 'experiments'? Furthermore, they actively analyze the source code of extensions for any icky 'problematic' words that might show up in there. github.com/mozilla/addons-linter/blob/master/src/badwords.json Long story short, Firefox is botnet. Safari, IE/Edge, Opera, and Vivaldi are proprietary. [insert loonix webkitgtk/qtwebengine browser] is too barebones. Doesn't have any capacity for privacy/tracking protection besides occasionally a very basic adblocker.
Bruh, this site doesn't even work on it. Neither do most.

Firefox looks like a faggot

It works, except that you can't post.

Cancel your internet service and install TempleOS. The only communication you truly need is with god. Alternatively there's ungoogled-chromium but seeing as your taking the paranoid delusions of Jow Forums as legitimate guidance, the former option is much more in line with your end goals.
Elijah Jackson
Micromanaging firefox is the only way. No choice but to look past their development politics and use the browser purely as a browser. Use a config.js file, if you're paranoid lock write permissions or use some script to watch for changes. In theory they could just stop loading the config.js but you can be certain that would immediately cause a huge uproar and you can jump ship. In the meantime, a properly configured config.js lets you turn off any and all experiments, updates, and other shit, so barring a drastic move like that you'll be safe.
>IceCat This seems to be the only sane option. Shame it's not available on other OSes.

or tor browser
Logan Gray
cant you just compile firefox from source using icecats scripts that disable all the botnet?
Robert Robinson
GNU icecat

GO WASH YOUR MOUTH RIGHT NOW

Custom builds don't message telemetry pings by default. If you make sure that your update channel is defined as "release" (and therefore toolkit.telemetry.enabled is locked to false) then you can deactivate the collection of any data with about:config tweaks.
Isaiah Lewis
idk but tell me if you find out
Liam Miller
GNU Icecat. Chromium-ungoogled in you need a blink based browser.
Grayson Cox
anything for windows? I am condemned to the cuckshed, but I still need a way to remove some of the cameras from my asshole
It has weekly updates for the "test" version. Should be a new one every Saturday I think? Could be better, there's a bit of a curve for add-ons and such, but it is at least active. Posting it here will either kill it is awaken it. lol
Austin White
If you don't care someone else complied them, there are pre-made builds of both for windows.
Jonathan Bailey
I am too much of a mouthbreathing retard to find those may I humbly request the location I can find those
FIREFOX is objectively the best husbando. Safari is gay and Opera’s a woman so they’re right out. Internet Explorer is hiding control and intimacy issues behind his anxiety, and chrome’s personality is clearly built on false-confidence.
Probably. Doesn't seem to have virus/malware. If you're worried you should do you own research on it.
Levi Ward
imagine wanting to use a privacy/security browser like icecat or ungoogled and then using some random persons from githubs precompiled version you know nothing about
Blake Cook
>from someguy
Pretty much all open source and closed source software is like that. Most users don't know the people behind it.
Hudson Rogers
True, though some projects now will GPG-sign their packages. Proprietary is usually signed with a CA approved cert. That way you only need to trust the dev, rather than their download site, and they can build up a reputation.
>Brave has recently been discovered to be making major compromises despite their claimed focus on privacy. They're botnet. Oh, God this shit again... Here's what happened genius: warosu.org/g/thread/S69812193#p69820836 You didn't even bother to read what you've posted and you're concluding everything left and right with utmost certainty. Hate to break it to you - but Brave and Ungoogled-chromium if it hasn't been abandoned yet (because it's one version behind at best) are your only choices.
Oliver Ross
NetSurf is the only real alternative browser. Sadly, it doesn't have enough developers behind it.
Cameron Richardson
I fixed your fucking image. Never post compressed shit on my board again.
