  • for privacy:

    • ublock origin (default settings)
    • noscript
    • privacy badger (by eff)
    • canvasblocker
    • localcdn
    • clearurls

    additionally, i also use bitwarden for password managing, libredirect for automatically redirecting to alternative privacy front-ends, xbrowsersync for syncing bookmarks, and snowflake for tor censorship circumvention.


  • none. chromium is a google (-endorsed) product, who put their own little tracking tidbits into the chromium project. if you still want to use a chromium-based browser, i have two ‘suggestions’:

    • brave. renowned in the privacy community but has had a few suspicious moments, and honestly i just don’t trust their whole big-tech thing they got going on.
    • ungoogled-chromium. basically just the chromium browser but without the google shit in it. no extra privacy-advancing features as far as i’m aware though, and extensions don’t seem to work.

    now if you really want a good browser, go for either of the following firefox-like browsers:

    • firefox with arkenfox user.js. firefox as you know and love it, with the arkenfox privacy tinkering. i haven’t tested it and its apparently a bit difficult to install and configure, but i’ve heard its really helpful with privacy.
    • librewolf. a privacy-first firefox fork developed by an independent developer and contributors, no big-tech bullshit. my personal daily driver.

    anyway, sorry for the rant, but there u go.
