Briar is secure and private and works reliable. However it eats a lot of battery and no audio or video.

Privacy is diametrically opposed to the ability to control the people you rule over, so no state is privacy friendly. There are only degrees of extremism. The poorer countries are more privacy friendly in the world because they lack the resources to spy on everything. If they could they would spy more.

I'm gonna assume you're being funny

Public chats are, well public. If you are in a public chat then everyone can see what you say. Encryption or any other attempt to make it private are silly here. If you are in a private, encrypted group, then only those people can see what you say (unless someone leaks). If you are in a e2ee personal chat with one other person, then only the 2 of you know what is being said. If you send a regular email that is the same as a postcard and anyone can look at what it says. You choose where and how you want to speak and adjust accordingly.

Just keep dropping Google shit and recommending to others.Critical mass will be hit at some point. There are too many smart and capable people in the world to succumb to a Google world.

Ok bro, you know what I'm saying. Our convo ends here as I certainly don't have the same amount of free time as you to sit and argue over stupidities. Most people are smarter than me and just ignore people like you. I let myself get sucked in and wasted about 15 minutes of my life. Ignore and block is the way to go with bigots. Lesson learned.

I see what you're saying, but contrary to Twitter, Brave works very well and has very good security and privacy features. In fact it significantly improves upon Chromium which it is built on top of. It also offers massive improvements over Chrome in the privacy department. So whether he agrees with you that guys can become girls or vice versa, or whether he believes the same narrative that you do regarding corona is simply irrelevant. If you have found a new security or privacy flaw, I would love to hear about it. But pushing your irrelevant opinions on others who are not interested, is unpleasant for us, and a waste of time for you.

Yeah, I was thinking of browser PM with auto signin. But I'm dropping all that now. I wonder why these privacy and security focused browsers like Brave include options like this if they are bad for users.

This is what I was doing before I switched to cookies for convenience. I will be going back to this now.

Thanks, I will be deleting all cookies and using my desktop keepassxc.

Thanks for your response. Points 1 and 2 would be the same if I used an in browser password manager. I backup all passwords on my desktop manager and my laptop is pretty hard to break into. For point 3, do 1st party cookies track people? I thought they were mostly benign and for site settings.

Stop with the ad hominem attacks. We are interested in the tech specs and not your personal opinions of what is "right" and "wrong." Stick to the point, which is privacy and the tech that goes with it.
