While I choose not to actually /do/ it, I have done some 'thought 
experiments' in resolving what is 'troubling' privacy above.

You need an anonymous persona.  There are a number of ways to create 
that; I think the most practical approach is the concept of a 'burner' 
phone, so solve the 'connectivity' problem along w/ the anonymous 
persona problem; that is, first step.

The other thing you need is anonymous 'finances' in the form of a 
cryptocoin which aids anonymizing. Personally I haven't dev/d a full 
'background' on the coins, but I don't much like the ones which are too 
speculative. You can't really 'get' a true stablecoin which is also 
anonymizing, but you can get coins which /are/ anonymizing and much less 
speculative than such as bitcoin.

Since this thread is *actually* more of a 'severe' privacy issue than it 
is a 'browser' issue, except that the thread is about wanting a Ffx type 
browser (if possible) AND severe privacy, you HAVE TO solve the severe 
privacy first, and that requires an identity/persona w/ the ability to 
pay for things.  There is no such thing as a free ride when you impose 
all of the restrictions you have decided upon.
