    You're probably right. But think about it this way: If we're avoiding Chrome and Firefox because we don't want to be tracked, doesn't it seem like the authors of our operating systems would have an even more
    devious way of tracking us? And aren't they all on the same side of the table at the World Economic Forum? ;)

    Run Linux. Run one of the BSDs. I think we'll see people moving to the "friendly" linuxes when Windows 10 starts complaining about security
    issues and prompting people to buy Windows 11.

    Yea I'm with you on "run Linux," but not BSDs. What do you get out of it?

    I never trust anything 100%.. But I hope that when you use an open source browser there are a lot of people keeping an eye on it, and it was usually created in the first place to get away from 'Big Brother' themselves.. B)
