Built on Firefox, it strips away telemetry, trackers, and other privacy-invasive features while adopting a “hide-in-the-crowd” approach to minimize your digital footprint. Unlike mainstream browsers like Chrome or Edge, Mullvad Browser is designed to make all users appear nearly identical to websites, reducing the ability to track you based on browser characteristics like fonts, screen resolution, or hardware APIs.
If you have to choose between this and Arkenfox.js profile on Firefox, this is a better option for fingerprinting, as no one uses default Arkenfox.js. If you're that paranoid, just use Tor.
Its fingerprinting protection is also better than Brave.
If I had to choose two browsers to use for daily use, it would be Brave for normal activity and ensuring websites don't break and Mullvad for more privacy.
I'm currently using Zen Browser, but I've not really looked into how well the privacy settings are configured - as the vertical tabs and split view functionality works really well for me. How well do you think it compares with Mullvad, if you have done any analysis?
It's not much of a comparison @Shaz Shah
Mullvad has much stronger fingerprint protection than Zen Browser, and by default has very strong anti-telemetry and webRTC leak protection.
Run inside hosted hypervisor with crippled TPM with the extreme vpn discipline for a better experience
It's a good replacement of wretched murican firefox browser. It's a very good starter kit for privacy lovers. The browser has only Private mode. So, You need to turn on every addon for working in "Private Window".
The only thing this browser lacks is a more striking design like Zen Browser or the flexible design options offered by Floorp and Waterfox. It's a matter of aesthetics and taste, but that's not the most important thing.
Great software but a portable version is really needed. I asked to PortableApps to make one, please partecipate in the discussion: https://portableapps.com/node/79758
If you need to make some of your activity hard to connect with your daily use, Mullvad browser is great.
perfect... is Firefox on good-steroids, or a relaxed Tor. privacy and security focused, is also fast, easy-to-use, 0 problems or bug, and default settings is how defaults settings of a browser must to be! this is your, not a brand property
It's one of the few browsers that truly respects your privacy and protects it, thanks to uBlock and Tor integration. Built on Firefox, it avoids unnecessary bs and focuses solely on the browser.
Right now it's one of the best (if not the only) options for achieving a degree of anonymity on the clear web.
