The ethical company vision outlined in the Mozilla manifesto upholds the vision of open source software to enable a free internet which anyone can use and contribute to. Does the latest version of Firefox hold these values dear? The incognito browsing mode is the best I have seen yet. Unlike other browsers, Firefox automatically includes ad and tracker blockers in this mode. There are options for even stricter anti-tracking features in the privacy and security tab of the preferences area. Without tracking slowing down your browsing, page loading is faster. It may be no DuckDuck Go, the go-to browser for privacy, but it is a far cry from the continually tracking Google Chrome. One of the new updates the “Pocket” feature is great in that it allows you to save a load of content to one place with a single click but using your “pocket” does come with some in-built advertising.įirefox is also highly customizable.
If you like to personalize your browser then you have a vast array of themes (the fantasy and dark themes are awesome), extensions and plug ins.
There are tons of Firefox hacks, you can browse the list of keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys. The simple interface makes it very user friendly.
Just scroll down the drop-down menu on the right and browse options to open a private window, customize your settings, use the automatic password saver or sync your internet browsing across multiple devices. Other great features include the in-built screenshots tool and reader view which simplifies web pages for easy on-screen reading.
