I almost always use FF and I have zero problems. Do you let it update? Can you 
list a specific site?

The issue is that some websites just never load properly.  I'm not geek
enough to explain it, but I suspect that newer browsers like Chrome and
Edge can do more tricks and tips, and some websites are written to use
those features, and they are not written to be "backward compatible" to
also work with the older browsers.

Some of these are online retail sites, some are social sites, some are news
sites.  Not very many, but happening more and more often.

True, ultimately the expectation of privacy on the internet is an illusion.  
Doesn't mean I'm going to parade naked in front of a webcam, so finding that 
balance of reasonable practical measures while behaving with prudence is the 
goal.

Your problem is assuming there is any privacy in anything you do online, 
through a browser or however.  If you just accept that undeniable truth, 
then you can decide how you want to proceed.  Become Amish or just live 
with some degree of intrusion according to your preferences.


There is actually no privacy in much of anything anymore, that is just 
how it is.  Well, maybe talking with someone or singing while driving 
down the road in an old 300D or SD or something like that, where it is 
not worth anyone's bother to track you (assuming there are no trackers

Re: [MBZ] OT Web Browser Privacy

2021-07-08 Thread Scott Ritchey via Mercedes
Bob Braxman makes podcasts on internet privacy.  Here's one on browsers: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZTXGUjHTJc
Brave is built on Chromium (like many others) but with modifications for better 
privacy.  
Search engine choice is a separate issue.  Duck Duck Go and StartPage have good 
reputations
The problem is you never know what may be lurking in the code (or in an update).
Personally, I use Brave with the default DuckDuckGo search engine but I can't 
prove it's better than others.

Chrome and Edge are now effectively the same. Edge is just a Microsoft veneer 
over Chrome internals.

Is your Firefox up to date? It's not any "older" than Chrome, in the sense that 
both are actively developed and updated.

I have found that some Google sites such as Docs and gMail do seem faster in 
Chrome. Surprise surprise. But they do generally "work" in Firefox also, at 
least for me.

I'd say it's more likely that your ad blockers are the problem than Firefox 
itself. I use uBlock Origin, and it seems to work pretty well. I have not tried 
any others.

I've got some ad blocker extensions for FF, but that's it.

The issue is that some websites just never load properly.  I'm not geek
enough to explain it, but I suspect that newer browsers like Chrome and
Edge can do more tricks and tips, and some websites are written to use
those features, and they are not written to be "backward compatible" to

True, if there was an issue with search results, DDG isn’t always the best. 
Sometimes I’ll jump over to Chrome to do a search if I want more granular 
results.

This may help. I have heard good things about Brave. I have no firsthand 
knowledge though.

[MBZ] OT Web Browser Privacy

2021-07-08 Thread Meade Dillon via Mercedes
 Firefox used to be my preferred browser, but lately it's functionality has
been lacking.

Can anyone point me to a good "how to" guide for the privacy settings for
Edge?  A few years ago, I found an article online that walked through all
the Chrome settings so one can minimize privacy impacts (from third parties
and from Google).  I was looking yesterday and found helpful advice about a
few simple and obvious things, all focused on privacy / security from third
parties, but I was expecting a lot more.
