This new piece of Chromeware comes with:
>A new Sync Button directly ripping off the Chrome Account button.
>New rules so that Add Ons are disabled by default on Private Mode.
>Saves Password even on Private Mode.
I rate it a: “Switch to Basilisk/Pale Moon you Dumbass Court Monkey!” out of 10.

of course. I wonder if Basilisk is in any Linux distros' repos or if I need to compile it. Or if it's even worth using it instead of Pale Moon. Is Pale Moon even actually secure?

It's not new and it's easy to remove.

So let me get this straight: first you're mad because they're disabling extensions on private mode by default (because those extensions can and will gather data on your private tabs) and then you're mad because it's now possible to save some info from private tabs? Make up your mind.
And no, Firefox doesn't "Save Password even on Private Mode." it merely asks users if they wish to save their passwords.

I shouldn't be surprised when the mods are retarded enough to disable posting with a VPN for such a long amount of time, though. I'm only staying because I'm a masochist who enjoys seeing things rot.

If you're using librejs properly, a significant portion those vulnerabilities are meaningless. Those vulnerabilities work because they have unlimited access to Javascript which can be used to overwrite the boundaries that are supposed to be.

Are you genuinely retarded or just pretending? His complaint is that even though it disables extensions to prevent saving data from private tabs it still saves data from private tabs.

Says a lot about you. Sync button is old as dirt.
The private-browsing-disabling-new-addons-by-default thing is fucking annoying to me, but after talking to normie friends they apparently use private browsing as a sort of fresh-start deal and having their six gorrillion pinterest facebook bullshit icons turned off there is what they want, and they just manually whitelist uBlock Origin.
I use temporary containers on every new tab by default, and don't have AIDS addons installed in the first place, so I wouldn't have thought of such a thing.
Sync is also a really useful feature. I use a ton of devices and all my bookmarks, tabs, etc are seamlessly available, and E2E encrypted. Feels good.

There is no reason, besides the unfortunate situation where you need (a) web extension(s), to use Mozilla Firefox instead of Pale Moon.

Latest "legacy" strand of ublock origin that works with pale meme/bashitlisk is here: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/firefox-legacy-1.16.4.11 , it is updated periodically.
There's an auto-updater for it on https://addons.palemoon.org, as well as their custom fork of uMatrix.

Not good enough, because your modern web browser is millions of lines of code. And that means it's not just more buggy and exploitable due to that, but it also requires botnet hardware in order to run okay.

then don't sync, and autistically walk around with a browser usb stick like it's 2007; it's been in the thing for years.

addons can contain tracking components, letting them through while browsing is retarded.

arguable; if you don't use sync and trust them it's just a locally stored file, no different than a local password store program. You really shouldn't be logging in if your goal is to be private though.

If you’re a Windowsfag are you just better off using Microsoft Edge vs Chrome at this point?

Or is Microsoft still somehow worse at this point?
