      Copy without tracking has been hit or miss for me on Firefox

    They need to add a row for “Owned by a foreign superpower”“Owned by the Chinese government” and a check for Opera.

    I like using Firefox, but it’s a bit ironic to have google analytics tracking on the page you declare to protect the users privacy.

    those tables usually are wrong or misleading, i don’t like them.

    Edge for example has the 3rd party cookie blocking and it works ok, so why it’s “no” and not “somewhat” or similar?

    I think this is a shitpost of the highest order. If this appears to everyone (?) it adds nothing, and the crappy table is just astonishingly blatant cherry-picking.

      And Brave too, which inconveniently beats firefox hands down in independent privacy checks. The mozilla foundation finally needs to step it up.

            Even if it weren’t for the crypto, Brave’s CEO is one sleazy, untrustworthy motherfucker. I’d never put my privacy in his hands. Just an absolute dogshit reputation.

              I figured there was enough to criticize without needing to resort to ad-hominem attacks against the CEO. However, if we’re going there, then I’d be remiss not to point out that he’s also the motherfucker who inflicted Javascript upon the world when we could’ve had a decent language like Python or Scheme in the browser instead. Not to downplay the significance of his bigotry, but that’s almost the greatest sin of them all!

                Homophobes always come bundled with a lot of other problems. There’s no way anyone can trust a homophobe of any kind.

                Anyway, blocking you. Have a great life, asshole.

                Edit: Bonus fuck javascript

                Edit 2: This was so wrong of me, I’m sorry. I’m an ass. Leaving my comment for honesty’s sake.

    You love it?

    I bet you hate Google doing self ads?
    Yet this is also just a self ad. And spammy, because it pops open a tab, something browsers are supposed to suppress unless specifically enabled.

      This is a false equivalence.

      If Google advertises the merits of their browser within their browser, like Mozilla is doing here, then that’s fair enough, I have zero complaints about that. Why not have a welcome page when you install the browser, highlighting the benefits of using your product?

      If Google is utilising their other products to unfairly give themselves a leg up in advertising their browser, then yeah, I’m against that.

      If I search on Google (the de facto standard), I shouldn’t have popups telling me to use Chrome. If I watch a YouTube video, Google shouldn’t be allowed to place Chrome ads there.

      Same goes for MS relentlessly advertising Edge in Windows and forcing it into other Microsoft programs.

      Those are examples of companies abusing their monopolistic market position to gain a business advantage, which is illegal. It’s nothing like Mozilla having a Firefox ad within Firefox.
