It can. Just use the built-in containers.


Firefox generates a modified user profile by anonymizing data collected from multiple users. A more technical explanation can be found here:

Firefox assigns a single fingerprint to multiple users. These tests are wildly inaccurate.



It’s indeed an issue. Several manufacturers like Xiaomi or Samsung lock their devices, which can make it quite challenging or even impossible to install custom software. Ironically, Google is the most open vendor if you’re interested in customising your device.


In case someone actually ponders this, Mullvad means mole in Swedish.



Just fabulous! I absolutely can’t wait for Facebook and the gang to graciously remove their apps from the stores. It’s not like I rely on services like WhatsApp for daily communication or anything. But honestly, who wouldn’t want Rishi Sunak to have a front-row seat to all our messages? It’s like a dream come true, really.


GrapheneOS enhances Android privacy by isolating your device’s activity, providing a level of anonymity that’s not found in standard iOS and Android setups. In GrapheneOS, only you, the recipient, and the cellular mast you’re connected to are privy to your call information.

In contrast, with iOS and default Android, Apple and Google have visibility into all your connections. While there are many nuances to this, I hope this gives you a clearer picture.


GrapheneOS supports all banks because they implemented the SafetyNet required for banking and other high-risk applications.


I’m curious about their perspectives too.

The only other options I can consider are government-issued ID verification, a bank validation process (a fast transfer to confirm identity), or the use of a debit/credit card.

All of the above alternatives involve significantly more intrusion than requesting a phone number.



No, it’s when the company attempts to assume the role of a governing body and delves into the privacy of people’s bedrooms.


They don’t have to, they choose to. You can share bookmarks on Firefox, but Mozilla doesn’t filter nor censor them Orwellian style.
