#privatebrowsing — Public Fediverse posts

Your browser is the entry point of the internet – and the first point of surveillance.

Every click, search, and visit can leave digital traces that are collected, analyzed, and retained.
But privacy should not be a setting. It should be the default. Navigate differently with NeuroBrowser.

"I stopped using " #Incognito Mode" for #privacy after learning about #fingerprinting"

#Incognitomode is one of the biggest privacy misnomers. The name is designed to make you feel like you're protected #online, that what you're #browsing is #anonymous and hidden away from the world.

But in reality, #privatebrowsing isn't private, and that needs to be addressed.

Is there any browser with an inverse #PrivateBrowsing mode?

Basically, all your browsing history, etc. is store locally but cookies and cache data are forgotten each time, so the outside world sees it as a fresh session but you can still see your own history :firefoxnew:

Does it bother anyone else that if you open a Discord invite in a Firefox private browser window tab, the desktop Discord app will still intercept it and just open it like usual without user input? That feels like an attack vector, right? #discord #firefox #security #privatebrowsing

"Oops, I had to switch to another app for a moment. Can I have my private tabs again Firefox Mobile?"

We were just coming online to voice a concern that there is a "chrome://" protocol(?) serving javascript in #Tor.

What do people here think of Tor?

If there were to be a new standard we wonder whether it could use the work that Tor have already done?

So there's less a need to reinvent the wheel?

Maybe something that can easily plug into Tor or #i2p? Same way you have a different window for #privateBrowsing in Firefox?
