Consider using various browsers for different purposes, EFF’s Daly Barnett told the @WSJ. “Choosing a different browser based on the level of privacy one needs for a specific activity will do wonders for the overall risk their digital footprint carries.” https://www.wsj.com/tech/cybersecurity/internet-browsing-privacy-99ee0be8

karatekid (karatekid@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 30-May-2024 10:34:51 JST karatekid @WSJ @eff I've been using multiple browsers for years. My main one is Tor Browser. For other websites that don't play nice with Tor I will use a hardened version of Firefox called LibreWolf. For things that tend to break with lots of privacy ad-ons, like banks, I will use Chromium with minimal add-ons and only the bare bones privacy settings. That has seemed to work well for me over the years.
