title: Google Chrome
type: "Anti-Recommendation"
description: |
Chrome is completely controlled by Google, and taps into your browsing history to track you across the web and serve you targeted advertisements. Because of Google's interest in increased ad revenues, Google Chrome offers [no privacy protections](https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/06/21/google-chrome-has-become-surveillance-software-its-time-switch/) out of the box compared to Firefox, and has taken anti-consumer steps to [block common extensions like adblockers](https://www.wired.com/story/google-chrome-ad-blockers-extensions-api/). <mark>It's best to avoid this browser at all costs.</mark>

title: Tor Browser
type: Recommendation

description: |
<strong>Tor Browser</strong> is the choice if you need anonymity. This browser provides you with access to the Tor Bridges and Tor Network, along with extensions that can be automatically configured to fit its three security levels - <em>Standard</em>, <em>Safer</em> and <em>Safest</em>. We recommend that you do not change any of Tor Browser's default configurations outside of the standard security levels.
<h4>Extensions</h4>
You should <strong>never</strong> install any additional extensions on Tor Browser, including the ones we suggest for Firefox. Browser extensions make you stand out from other Tor users and your browser easier to <a href="https://support.torproject.org/glossary/browser-fingerprinting">fingerprint</a>.

title: Chromium
type: Anti-Recommendation
description: |
Without signing into a Google Account, the open-source builds of Chromium do relatively well in terms of security and privacy. However, Chromium still does have a number of integrations with Google hardcoded into the source, and because it is designed to be as user-friendly as possible, it operates in a way that compromises transparency and user-control. And, Chromium is still directly developed by Google, who have attempted to introduce anti-consumer measures in the past as mentioned in the Google Chrome section.

title: Brave Browser
type: Anti-Recommendation
description: |
Despite being widely touted as a privacy-friendly Chromium browser, we have a number of concerns with Brave's business practices and future business model that prevents us from recommending them. The Brave team [has publicly stated](https://www.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/comments/cs8foq/update_delisting_brave/) they do not want to be associated with privacy-focused groups like PrivacyTools ([PrivacyTools PR #657](https://github.com/privacytools/privacytools.io/pull/657)), which causes us to believe the Brave team does not wish to be under too much scrutiny from the privacy community as they continue to develop their product ([Reddit discussion](http://archive.today/2020.05.13-035943/https://www.removeddit.com/r/brave_browser/comments/csapsy/brave_browser_is_being_delisted_from/exf6i0f/)).

title: Safari
type: Worth Mentioning
description: |
A browser option on macOS and iOS with a strong focus on security and [privacy](https://www.apple.com/safari/docs/Safari_White_Paper_Nov_2019.pdf). <mark>We believe Safari is an acceptable choice for Apple users,</mark> despite Safari being a proprietary browser, because Apple users are already trusting a proprietary operating system to run their programs on. We do not recommend using iCloud Sync, which saves your bookmarks and history in a way which allows Apple to view them. Additionally, [WebKit](https://webkit.org), the browser engine powering Safari *is* open source.

title: Ungoogled Chromium
type: Worth Mentioning
description: |
A desktop browser based on Chromium which removes all Google integrations, while adding features which seek to enhance your security, privacy, and control of your browser. However, <mark>we do not strongly recommend the use of Ungoogled Chromium for most users</mark> at this time, because of a lack of official builds and updates from the developer. We strongly believe that auto-updating apps are key for maintaining security, lest you browse the web with outdated builds of your browser which may be susceptible to any number of live exploits.
