Considering the continuous invasive "privacy respecting" of Mozilla
corporation and its ties with Google and other companies, it is time to
consider moving away from Firefox and switching to a truly privacy
respecting one.
Unlike Firefox ungoogled-chromium makes ZERO background and ZERO
unsolicited connections. It is also very easy to set up a tor proxy and
use it with ungoogled-chromium. The only thing it lacks is the reset-
identity functionality and the use of separate Tor circuits/IPs for
different sites.
