Desktop Browsers | material/laptop | Firefox and Brave are our recommendations for standard/non-anonymous browsing. |
These are our currently recommended desktop web browsers and configurations for standard/non-anonymous browsing. Om du vill surfa anonymt på internet bör du använda Tor i stället. In general, we recommend keeping your browser extensions to a minimum; they have privileged access within your browser, require you to trust the developer, can make you stand out, and weaken site isolation.
Firefox
!!! recommendation
![Firefox logo](assets/img/browsers/firefox.svg){ align=right }
**Firefox** provides strong privacy settings such as [Enhanced Tracking Protection](https://support.mozilla.org/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop), which can help block various [types of tracking](https://support.mozilla.org/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop#w_what-enhanced-tracking-protection-blocks).

!!! warning Firefox includes a unique download token in downloads from Mozilla's website and uses telemetry in Firefox to send the token. The token is not included in releases from the Mozilla FTP.
Rekommenderad konfiguration
Tor Browser är det enda sättet att verkligen surfa anonymt på internet. When you use Firefox, we recommend changing the following settings to protect your privacy from certain parties, but all browsers other than Tor Browser will be traceable by somebody in some regard or another.
These options can be found in :material-menu: → Settings → Privacy & Security.
Enhanced Tracking Protection
- Select Strict Enhanced Tracking Protection
This protects you by blocking social media trackers, fingerprinting scripts (note that this does not protect you from all fingerprinting), cryptominers, cross-site tracking cookies, and some other tracking content. ETP protects against many common threats, but it does not block all tracking avenues because it is designed to have minimal to no impact on site usability.
Sanitize on Close
If you want to stay logged in to particular sites, you can allow exceptions in Cookies and Site Data → Manage Exceptions...
- Check Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed
This protects you from persistent cookies, but does not protect you against cookies acquired during any one browsing session. When this is enabled, it becomes possible to easily cleanse your browser cookies by simply restarting Firefox. You can set exceptions on a per-site basis, if you wish to stay logged in to a particular site you visit often.
Search Suggestions
- Uncheck Provide search suggestions
Search suggestion features may not be available in your region.
Search suggestions send everything you type in the address bar to the default search engine, regardless of whether you submit an actual search. Disabling search suggestions allows you to more precisely control what data you send to your search engine provider.
Telemetry
- Uncheck Allow Firefox to send technical and interaction data to Mozilla
- Uncheck Allow Firefox to install and run studies
- Uncheck Allow Firefox to send backlogged crash reports on your behalf
Firefox sends data about your Firefox version and language; device operating system and hardware configuration; memory, basic information about crashes and errors; outcome of automated processes like updates, safebrowsing, and activation to us. When Firefox sends data to us, your IP address is temporarily collected as part of our server logs.
Additionally, the Firefox Accounts service collects some technical data. If you use a Firefox Account you can opt-out:
- Open your profile settings on accounts.firefox.com
- Uncheck Data Collection and Use > Help improve Firefox Accounts
HTTPS-Only Mode
- Select Enable HTTPS-Only Mode in all windows
This prevents you from unintentionally connecting to a website in plain-text HTTP. Sites without HTTPS are uncommon nowadays, so this should have little to no impact on your day to day browsing.
Firefox Sync
Firefox Sync allows your browsing data (history, bookmarks, etc.) to be accessible on all your devices and protects it with E2EE.
Arkenfox (advanced)
The Arkenfox project provides a set of carefully considered options for Firefox. If you decide to use Arkenfox, a few options are subjectively strict and/or may cause some websites to not work properly - which you can easily change to suit your needs. We strongly recommend reading through their full wiki. Arkenfox also enables container support.
Brave
!!! recommendation
![Brave logo](assets/img/browsers/brave.svg){ align=right }
**Brave Browser** innehåller en inbyggd innehållsblockerare och [integritetsfunktioner] (https://brave.com/privacy-features/), varav många är aktiverade som standard.
Brave bygger på webbläsarprojektet Chromium, så den bör kännas bekant och ha minimala problem med webbkompatibilitet.

1. We advise against using the Flatpak version of Brave, as it replaces Chromium's sandbox with Flatpak's, which is less effective. Additionally, the package is not maintained by Brave Software, Inc.
Rekommenderad konfiguration
Tor Browser är det enda sättet att verkligen surfa anonymt på internet. När du använder Brave rekommenderar vi att du ändrar följande inställningar för att skydda din integritet från vissa parter, men alla andra webbläsare än Tor Browser kommer att kunna spåras av någon i något avseende.
These options can be found in :material-menu: → Settings.
Sköldar
Brave har några åtgärder mot fingeravtryck i sin funktion Shields. Vi föreslår att du konfigurerar dessa alternativ globalt på alla sidor som du besöker.
Shields alternativ kan nedgraderas vid behov för varje enskild plats, men som standard rekommenderar vi att du ställer in följande:
-
Select Prevent sites from fingerprinting me based on my language preferences
-
Select Aggressive under Trackers & ads blocking
??? varning "Use default filter lists" Brave låter dig välja ytterligare innehållsfilter på den interna sidan
brave://adblock
. Vi avråder från att använda den här funktionen; behåll istället standardfilterlistorna. Om du använder extra listor sticker du ut från andra Brave-användare och kan också öka angreppsytan om det finns en exploit i Brave och en skadlig regel läggs till i en av de listor du använder. -
(Optional) Select Block Scripts (1)
-
Select Strict, may break sites under Block fingerprinting
- Det här alternativet ger funktioner som liknar uBlock Origin avancerade blockeringslägen för eller tillägget NoScript.
Social media blocking
- Avmarkera alla komponenter för sociala medier
Privacy and security
-
Select Disable non-proxied UDP under WebRTC IP Handling Policy
-
Uncheck Use Google services for push messaging
-
Uncheck Allow privacy-preserving product analytics (P3A)
-
Uncheck Automatically send daily usage ping to Brave
-
Uncheck Automatically send diagnostic reports
-
Select Always use secure connections in the Security menu
-
Uncheck Private window with Tor (1)
!!! tip "Sanitizing on Close" - [x] Select Clear cookies and site data when you close all windows in the Cookies and other site data menu
If you wish to stay logged in to a particular site you visit often, you can set exceptions on a per-site basis under the *Customized behaviors* section.
- Brave is not as resistant to fingerprinting as the Tor Browser and far fewer people use Brave with Tor, so you will stand out. Where strong anonymity is required use the Tor Browser.
Extensions
Disable built-in extensions you do not use in Extensions
- Uncheck Hangouts
- Uncheck WebTorrent
IPFS
InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) är ett decentraliserat peer-to-peer-nätverk för lagring och delning av data i ett distribuerat filsystem. Om du inte använder funktionen, inaktivera den.
- Select Disabled on Method to resolve IPFS resources
Additional settings
Under the System menu
- Uncheck Continue running apps when Brave is closed to disable background apps (1)
- This option is not present on all platforms.
Brave Sync
Brave Sync gör det möjligt att få tillgång till dina webbläsardata (historik, bokmärken osv.) på alla dina enheter utan att du behöver ett konto och skyddar dem med E2EE.
Ytterligare resurser
We generally do not recommend installing any extensions as they increase your attack surface. However, uBlock Origin may prove useful if you value content blocking functionality.
uBlock Origin
!!! recommendation
![uBlock Origin logo](assets/img/browsers/ublock_origin.svg){ align=right }
**uBlock Origin** is a popular content blocker that could help you block ads, trackers, and fingerprinting scripts.
[:octicons-repo-16: Repository](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#readme){ .md-button .md-button--primary }
[:octicons-eye-16:](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Privacy-policy){ .card-link title="Privacy Policy" }

[:octicons-code-16:](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock){ .card-link title="Source Code" }
??? downloads
- [:simple-firefoxbrowser: Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/)
- [:simple-googlechrome: Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm)
- [:simple-microsoftedge: Edge](https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/ublock-origin/odfafepnkmbhccpbejgmiehpchacaeak)
We suggest following the developer's documentation and picking one of the "modes". Additional filter lists can impact performance and may increase attack surface.
Other lists
These are some other filter lists that you may want to consider adding:
- Check Privacy > AdGuard URL Tracking Protection
- Add Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool
Kriterier
Observera att vi inte är knutna till något av de projekt som vi rekommenderar. Förutom våra standardkriterierhar vi utvecklat en tydlig uppsättning krav som gör det möjligt för oss att ge objektiva rekommendationer. Vi föreslår att du bekantar dig med den här listan innan du väljer att använda ett projekt, och att du gör din egen forskning för att se till att det är rätt val för dig.
!!! exempel "Det här avsnittet är nytt"
Vi arbetar med att fastställa kriterier för varje del av vår webbplats, och detta kan komma att ändras. Om du har några frågor om våra kriterier, vänligen [fråga på vårt forum] (https://discuss.privacyguides.net/latest) och tro inte att vi inte har beaktat något när vi gjorde våra rekommendationer om det inte finns med här. Det finns många faktorer som beaktas och diskuteras när vi rekommenderar ett projekt, och att dokumentera varje enskild faktor är ett pågående arbete.
Minimikrav
- Måste vara programvara med öppen källkod.
- Supports automatic updates.
- Receives engine updates in 0-1 days from upstream release.
- Available on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Eventuella ändringar som krävs för att göra webbläsaren mer integritetsvänlig bör inte påverka användarupplevelsen negativt.
- Blocks third-party cookies by default.
- Supports state partitioning to mitigate cross-site tracking.1
Bästa fall
Våra kriterier för bästa fall representerar vad vi skulle vilja se av det perfekta projektet i denna kategori. Våra rekommendationer kanske inte innehåller alla eller några av dessa funktioner, men de som gör det kan vara högre rankade än andra på den här sidan.
- Includes built-in content blocking functionality.
- Supports cookie compartmentalization (à la Multi-Account Containers).
- Supports Progressive Web Apps.
PWAs enable you to install certain websites as if they were native apps on your computer. This can have advantages over installing Electron-based apps, because you benefit from your browser's regular security updates. - Does not include add-on functionality (bloatware) that does not impact user privacy.
- Does not collect telemetry by default.
- Provides open-source sync server implementation.
- Defaults to a private search engine.
Kriterier för förlängning
- Får inte replikera inbyggda webbläsar- eller OS-funktioner.
- Måste direkt påverka användarens integritet, det vill säga får inte bara ge information.
