1. I installed MullvadBrowser via RPM and not use flatseal 2. Pretty sure all browsers require disabling hardened malloc, even Trivalent 3. Mullvad Browser is available as a flatpak, unsure if it’s the “official” one, but I didn’t go that route 4. Don’t let sour grapes deter you. If your focus is security, then secure blue is reasonably secure by default (for Linux). I gave up trying to tweak a distro to be secure. Hardened malloc just doesn’t work for some apps. That will be the case until hardened malloc is the primary memory allocator, period. If that’s a concern, don’t use that app.

SYST3M_D3STR0YER: > But if you want to log in into websites,… you can’t. There’s an issue that’s present for two years, were disabling “Always use private browsing mode“ and adding a website to the whitelist doesn’t keep cookies and websitedata reliable Do you really cant login into sites or do MullvadBrowser just dont keep the cookies after you close it?

@anonymous647 @va3890hd I am pretty sure that what @win11.shading291 meant with „don‘t use MullvadBrowser as main browser because it defeats the purpose to combat fingerprinting“ is that _if you use MB while still logging into websites_ the anti-fingerprinting is not worth anything because when logging into websites / being logged into websites, the website can uniquely indentify you anyway. Therefore, it defeats the only purpose of anti-fingerprinting. Plus yes it isn‘t as convenient as non TOR Browser / non MullvadBrowser too.

Leta, the privacy-focused search engine, by Mullvad.

The Mullvad Browser is a privacy-focused web browser developed in collaboration between Mullvad VPN and the Tor Project. It’s produced to minimize tracking and fingerprinting.

any1: > If you just slap the Mullvad config onto the latest release you will not be a part of the crowd. 1. Well then, can you just name a few concrete fingerprinting-relevant values which distinguish a user with that theoretical setup (lastest ESR/Non-ESR] version of FireFox, configured with [MullvadBrowser’s configs before the first startup of FireFox, installed uBlock Origin and configured with the exact same way MullvadBrowser does, don’t logged-in anywhere, don’t changed any setting, used with MullvadVPN and don’t installed any extension more than uBlock Origin) to a MullvadBrowser+MullvadVPN user? 2. If that is true and you can’t compare MullvadBrowser with LibreWolf (which might be the case!), then my main argument still persists: SYST3M_D3STR0YER: > Why don’t use OpenBSD with Whonix every single day? “But then surfing is slow and I can’t visit several websites and“ - “Convenience shouldn’t be a factor.” > > **In every way, you are making Privacy/Security/Convenience trade-offs** , so the _only question should be:_ > > Outweighs the additional convenience, privacy and freedom features/patches of LibreWolf compared to FireFox & ArkenFox the security fix delay of LibreWolf? > > So, here‘s what I think: > > **You just can‘t say objectively if some convenience features outweighs security disadvantages,_so the User should choose._** That’s why I think we should mention LibreWolf. And also, none of the 13 in FF non-achievable advantages of LibreWolf has been yet refuted (except maybe one that Cyber-Typhoon mentioned).

You’re just repeating debunked argument. This is FUD at this point. This is exactly what happened with Mullvad. If Librewolf can’t be recommended because if this, then don’t recommend Mullvad either. SYST3M_D3STR0YER: > Neither does Mullvadbrowser! And really, 5 days is worrying, but the MullvadBrowser had this issue in the past already: If you look at my table, you see that the security vulnerabities fixed in FireFox 139.0, among others one „critical“-security fix (which is even much higher than a „high“-security fix) and seven „moderate“-security fixes, were fixed in MullvadBrowser **six days** after firefox!

I don’t understand how this was supposed to help. The browser doesn’t protect against some important fingerprints. The browser has a market share below 1% and a unique user agent, with some users using default settings, while others use recommended or custom ones. Brave is still extremely easy to fingerprint, so I don’t understand who people are trying to fool by using this browser, especially VPN users using this browser. https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/35646 https://community.brave.app/t/brave-fingerprinting-protection-not-entirely-foolproof/616901 Arkenfox isn’t much better by default, depending on system settings. Websites can detect system regional settings and time zone, which on some devices are very unique. But here at least this can be fixed with RFP or RFPTargets.
