Firefox Quantum
Good ol Firefox.
For mobile browsing, we recommend checking outFirefox Focus, a more stripped-down and privacy-centric version of Firefox.
We especially like the little flame icon in the bottom-center of the web app.
Tap it, and youll be asked if you want to clear all of your tabs and data.
Confirm by tapping the option again, and everything youve done on the mobile surfing app is erased.
For example:
Tell your preferred internet tool tostart in incognito or private mode.
Enableany bonus featuresyour web client might have, but isnt running by default, to keep your data safer.
Change the default search engine to a privacy-minded website, likeDuckDuckGoorStartpage.
Installextensionsthat can help you protect your privacy.
Use an ad-blocker, likeAdBlock Plus.
Automatically clear your cache and history when you shut down your internet tool.
Use HTTPS/SSLeverywhere it’s possible for you to.
Use a VPN to encrypt all of your traffic.
