- More parallel sentence structures, following <Name> <Verb phrase>
for the first sentence of cards. Related to issue #1420.
- Make Njalla parallel to the others, and mention Njalla
is based in Nevis with VPS in Sweden
- Don't use "us" when talking about external services
- Orange Website also provides domain registration
- Update capitalization and add more hyphens
- Mention that TOS;DR evaluations are done by the community and that
  they also evaluate privacy policies (see https://edit.tosdr.org/about)
- "E2EE encryption" is redundant since "E2EE" already has "encryption"
in it. Might as well expand it since full term is used later on.
- <Name> <Verb phrase> structure for Magic Wormhole
- For consistency, don't start Worth Mentioning entries with the name
- https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/27707/post-hyphenation-of-split-compound-words

<p>You need to find what <strong>most browsers</strong> are reporting, and then use those variables to bring your browser in the same population. This means having the same fonts, plugins, and extensions installed as the large installed base. You should have a <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/uaswitcher/">spoofed user agent string</a> to match what the large userbase has. You need to have the same settings enabled and disabled, such as DNT and WebGL. You need your browser to look as common as everyone else. Disabling JavaScript, using Linux, or even using the Tor Browser Bundle, will make your browser stick out from the masses.</p>

<p>Modern web browsers have not been architected to assure personal web privacy. Rather than worrying about being fingerprinted, it seems more practical to use <a href="#addons"><i class="fas fa-link"></i> free software plugins</a> like Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin. They not only respect your freedom, but your privacy also. You can get much further with these than trying to manipulate your browser's fingerprint.</p>
