Onion routing & vpn/proxy are only similar to those who don't understand the difference - as general purpose browsers will never be onion routers. Moving forward, I did try the suggestion of using Mullvad, which is quite a nice Mozilla-based general-purpose privacy web browser out of the box. a. Mullvad has fingerprint resistance by default b. It has private mode by default (i.e., no history, cookies, etc.) c. Mozilla telemetry has been stripped out d. It forces HTTPS mode by default e. It has enhanced tracking protection by default f. It has cookie isolation protection g. It encrypts DNS requests over HTTPS h. It alerts users to fingerprinting sites i. It even supports some privacy extensions (e.g., uBlock Origin) e. And it's designed for VPN use - however - there's a catch... It works with VPN all right - but it only seems to work with its own VPN. <https://mullvad.net/en/browser> The problem is the Mullvad Browser Extension only functions if youâ”´e actively connected to Mullvad VPN and to connect to Mullvad VPN you need to register for an account - which is the worst thing anyone can do. There are two golden rules for privacy on the net, and one is to never register for anything (the other is never pay with a traceable method). Anyone doing either of those forbidden actions (especially nowadays with even throwaway emails requiring phone or a second email validation) will never stand a snowball's chance in hell to have any privacy, even with VPN. When we have the tutorial written, thousands of people can benefit simply by clicking on the cut-and-paste steps to easily build a privacy browser.
