Mullvad Browser
Mullvad Browser is a free, open-source browser designed to reduce tracking and browser fingerprinting. It uses the Gecko engine and runs on supported versions of Linux, macOS and Windows; the Windows version requires Windows 10 or later and a 64-bit system. Fingerprinting protection is intended to make users appear more similar to one another, and uBlock Origin is included to block third-party trackers. The browser also includes ad blocking. Private mode is enabled by default, so cookies, cache and history are not saved between sessions, and a reset button starts a clean session in one click. Mullvad says it has removed browser telemetry. The browser can connect with or without a VPN, but it does not use the Tor Network; it was developed in collaboration with the Tor Project. Cross-device sync is not available. Mullvad says it does not earn money from the browser and instead earns income from its VPN service. Support questions can be sent to [email protected].
