Mullvad Browser (no TOR, no VPN) (monero.town)

The Mullvad Browser is a privacy-focused web browser developed in collaboration with Mullvad VPN and the Tor Project. It aims to eliminate data collection and provide user-centric browsing services, ensuring online activity remains private and secure. The browser has the same fingerprinting protection as the Tor Browser, but connects to the internet without Tor Network or VPN instead. The Mullvad Browser provides anti-fingerprinting protections.

The idea is to provide one more alternative – beside the Tor Network – to browse the internet with more privacy. To get as many people as possible to fight the big data gathering of today. To free the internet from mass surveillance.

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 see thanks. Damn I hate that privacy means compromising that much. Not sure I’d get use to it. But I will certainly give it a try

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.

But just a little bit ;)
