[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1942292, member: 204485"] Browser Audit is a little more comprehensive, these are my results on Brave. [ATTACH type="full"]39397[/ATTACH] The Restore Privacy site is also interesting. It would seem to confirm that Brave is still top of the list if for no other reason than it's sheer simplicity out of the box. "One of the reasons we like Brave is because it offers simple, out-of-the-box privacy by default." Lastly the article kinda confirms my opinion that the combination of a secure browser and good VPN is worthwhile, "When using “private” or “incognito” browsing mode in your browser, your real IP address and location are still being revealed to every website, ad, and tracker that loads in your browser. Additionally, all your activities remain visible to your internet service provider (ISP). And at least here in the United States, ISPs log everything you do online and share the data with many other parties. This is why it’s critical to use a good VPN for basic digital privacy. [B]The best way to achieve true privacy while hiding your real IP address and online activities is to use a secure browser together with a good VPN. This protects you at both ends of the line, and in the middle too.[/B] The secure browser will protect you as described in this article, while the VPN will protect your identity by hiding your real IP address and location. The VPN will also encrypt your traffic so your ISP (and any other snoops out there) cannot see your activities online." I rest my case.😊 [/QUOTE]
