On Android, Firefox is still less secure than Chromium-based alternatives: Mozilla's engine, GeckoView, has yet to support site isolation or enable isolatedProcess.

Sadly it is still a problem. Fortunately there are some pretty good mobile browsers like Cromite available!

It's always funny/sad to see that "we care about your privacy" doublespeak on an article about digital privacy

Mental.

As the other commenter said it's about the hardware really. I tested it out on a really old device first to make sure it actually worked - it did but at a glacially slow pace. The new box is pretty snappy though!

All good until someone smashes into you and you discover how far safety features have come in three decades!

I could give two fucks

Really? I couldn't!

At that point just set the limit a few gig higher and don't have the decoy file at all

Set your private DNS to something like dns.adguard.com, it's a game changer!

Can you not install uBlock Origin on your work machine? I'd argue that it will improve your productivity and reduce the chance of losing the company's info to trackers and the like!

To be fair to those soulless coldblooded monsters it is literally their job to maximise profits, and if they fail they will be replaced with an equivalent bastard

Tangentially related, I recently replaced my Chromecast with a "Chromecast with Google TV". It's an Android TV box which you can install SmartTube on and cast YouTube with no ads. Yes, I am aware of the irony of paying Google for new hardware instead of paying them for their ad-free service, but the new device cost less than 2 months of YouTube Premium and I like tinkering.
