Ask Slashdot: Most Secure Browser In an Age of Surveillance?
An anonymous reader writes "With the discovery that the NSA may be gathering extensive amounts of data, and the evidence suggesting makers of some of the most popular browsers may be in on the action, I am more than a little wary of which web browser to use. Thus, I pose a question to the community: is there a 'most secure' browser in terms of avoiding personal data collection? Assuming we all know by know how to 'safely' browse the internet (don't click on that ad offering to free your computer of infections) what can the lay person do have a modicum of protection, or at least peace of mind?"
Wow, i just looked through that list of recommendations. Anyone who claims wordpress is secure and that an iOS device is tracked and an Android device isn't tracked is foolish, every cellular device can be tracked regardless of the OS.
EFF is more and more sounding like the NRA
gee, must be getting old, but I remember rumors of the NSA monitoring your phone calls via computer since I was a little kid in the 80's

OMFG! worlds shattered for the ignorant blissful youth, least you weren't murdered on your college campus by the national guard like your grandparents, you arrogant little turds
I mean for fucks sake, no god damned shit, you send plain text whizzing around the world and blindly accept that no one would ever read it based on unicorn farts and wishes tossed into a fountain, and NOW that you have acted like little asshat turds are you worried that people you never intended to see it, actually see it cause its the story of the month on babble TV
