Top-Tec! decentralized and doesn’t depend on any unique identifiers
Interesting, but the textfile is now 9 month old and eOS brings regularly (monthly) updates! If you forward the suggestions to them it could maybe be helpful to them, you could probably file pullrequests. I think they’re improving.
eOS is privacy enhancing smartphones!
You are not alone with this thoughts. Purism
offers phones that have the open source deeply in mind. You can even check xRays of their board.
I had several different banking apps, in different countries.
With Aurora store you can install all Apps, no matter of banking apps or other Android apps.
Fairphone seems to work close together with eOS.
I don’t know how iOS looks, so no problem for me.
It’s really more about the eOS.
You couldn’t pay on Aurora Store?
I never googled it - but that’s no surprise.
I think that’s a very good way to use Mullvad Browser: If you visit websites that you don’t know, or don’t want to get associated with. 👍
I guess that’s how browser window privacy looks like. You also close the curtains a little bit - if you don’t want others to see you naked while taking a shower.
Yes, exactly that’s the reason. To make you appear more equal to others. It is one part of how Mullvad Browser is providing you more privacy.
I hope you know the concept of Tor and why it can appear to be slow: Tor is routing the internet-connection through multiple instances of the TorNetwork to hide your actual physical location. That’s strong anonymity technique and Tor users usually do not worry about if it’s slower.
Thank you for pointing this out! I did not read it like that - probably because the concept is already in my mind. It could be some kind of alternative to Tor in combination with other technologies like i2p or Proxy or VPN. The Mullvad webpage also is strongly recommending to use VPN in combination with the Mullvad Browser.
Just see it from the other perspective: Many think that they are anonymously surfing the Web with their standard-webbrowser. But that’s not the case - you have to use proper sanity if you want to surf anonymously. And that’s why it’s good to use Mullvad Browser.
You can compare Mullvad Browser with your Firefox Browser. Just do a Fingerprint Test:
Is your Firefox better? Does it hide more details about you? No.
Your Firefox is likely very unique. So your settings and extensions appear to be special; let’s say you stick out of the others. Also your Screen-Size and if its a touchable screen and how much RAM your device has and so on… Mullvad Browser makes all users look much more like the same user - users are less identifiable.
Yes.
You can link your mobile device with desktop to use the same profile remotely, but this is only possible when both devices are connected to the same local network.
