Description
Get the people-first browser that’s backed by a non-profit.
It’s a new era in tech. Don’t settle for a browser produced by giant, profit driven, data hoarding tech companies. Firefox is the obvious choice for independent, ethical tech that respects your privacy and gives you more ways than ever before to tailor your internet experience exactly the way you want it.
Firefox is backed by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation, whose mission is to ensure the internet remains a global public resource, open and accessible to everyone. When you make Firefox your go-to, everyday browser, you’re also joining a unique (serious nerd cred) community that’s actively helping to diversify the way people experience the internet.
Firefox is extremely private for a reason — and the reason is you.
We want you to have an amazing experience every time you use Firefox. We know feeling safe and secure are foundational for enjoying your time online. Since version 1 in 2004, we’ve taken privacy seriously, because we’ve always been in the business of valuing people first, over everything. When you care more about people than you do about profits, privacy naturally becomes a top priority.
DIFFERENT DEVICES. SAME TRAIN OF THOUGHT.
Now you can search for things on your laptop then pick up the exact same search on your phone and vice versa. Your Firefox homepage displays your most recent searches you’ve done on your other devices so you can easily get back to what you were doing or thinking about.
LIMITED EDITION WALLPAPERS
Introducing limited-edition wallpapers from independent creators. Stick with one you love or switch it up anytime to make your Firefox match your mood.
STREAMLINED HOME SCREEN
Pick up right where you left off. See all your open tabs intuitively grouped and displayed along with your recent bookmarks, top sites and popular articles recommended by Pocket.
GET FIREFOX ON ALL YOUR DEVICES
Add Firefox across your devices for secure, seamless browsing. In addition to synced tabs and searches, Firefox also makes password management easy by remembering your passwords across devices.
PRIVACY CONTROL IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES
Firefox gives you greater privacy protection while you’re on the web. By default, Firefox blocks trackers and scripts such as social media trackers, cross-site cookie trackers, crypto-miners and fingerprinters. Setting Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection to “strict” blocks tracking content in all windows. Also, you can easily choose to search in private browsing mode. And when you close private browsing mode, your browsing history and any cookies are automatically erased from your device.
FIND IT FAST WITH FIREFOX’S SEARCH BAR
Get search suggestions in the search bar and quickly access the sites you visit most. Type in your search question and get suggested and previously searched results across your favourite search engines.
GET ADD-ONS
Full support for the most popular add-ons, including ways to turbo-charge powerful default privacy settings and customise your experience.
ORGANISE YOUR TABS THE WAY YOU LIKE
Create as many tabs as you like without losing track. Firefox displays your open tabs as thumbnails and numbered tabs, making it easy to find what you want quickly.
What's new
Bug fixes and technical improvements.
The appeal of add-ons cannot be understated; they provide users with customizable options enhancing their browsing experiences immensely allowing individuals control over their interactions online which is paramount today given rising concerns surrounding digital footprints.
You make an excellent point! It often feels paradoxical that we seek enhanced control yet willingly invite complexity into our online lives through these choices.
Customizability indeed allows for tailored experiences; however reliance on third-party add-ons introduces additional layers of complexity regarding potential security vulnerabilities.
‘Join a unique community of serious nerds’? Really? This article reads like it was penned by someone with a keyboard made of organic tofu! One might wonder if using Firefox also means donning socks with sandals while discussing obscure tech specs at social gatherings! While I can appreciate the enthusiasm for a non-profit browser, let’s not pretend it’s some kind of sacred pilgrimage for tech enthusiasts—it’s just software! Can we tone down the theatrics?
While I appreciate the intention behind promoting Firefox as a ‘people-first’ browser, I remain unconvinced about its actual impact on user privacy. The idea that any single organization can safeguard our data in an increasingly complex digital world seems overly optimistic at best and naive at worst. Just because Mozilla positions itself as non-profit does not inherently guarantee superiority in ethical practices compared to its profit-driven counterparts. Trust is earned, not freely given; thus far, I see little reason to abandon my existing browser.
The shift towards a browser that prioritizes user privacy over corporate profits is not just refreshing; it is essential in today’s digital landscape. Firefox’s commitment to keeping the internet accessible and secure cannot be overstated. It’s high time we champion tools that respect our privacy and empower users rather than exploit them for profit. The functionality allowing seamless transitions between devices, coupled with the robust privacy features like Enhanced Tracking Protection, marks a significant evolution in browsing technology. As someone who values both functionality and ethics, I find it invigorating to support a platform that embodies these principles.
True, but one must question whether this altruism can endure in an environment driven by market competition.
Absolutely! It’s about time we have an alternative that aligns with ethical standards. The user experience on Firefox keeps getting better, reflecting a genuine concern for users.
Using Firefox sounds like an adventure—like going into battle equipped with shiny armor but no sword! Sure, you’ve got nifty features such as ‘limited-edition wallpapers’ which sound more like decorative icing on an otherwise bland cake than functional enhancements for serious web-browsing tasks! But hey, if changing wallpapers brings joy while navigating through an endless sea of tabs, who am I to judge? Just make sure your armor is impenetrable against those pesky trackers!
In conclusion while Firefox represents commendable strides towards prioritizing ethical tech solutions amid overwhelming corporate influence here remains myriad concerns warranting further examination particularly around consistent application across various platforms ensuring holistic user protection remains paramount moving forward.
The ability to sync searches across devices indeed represents an important technological advancement; however, it begs several questions regarding data security protocols during this process. What assurances do users have against potential data breaches when transitioning between devices? Furthermore, while limited-edition wallpapers may appeal aesthetically to some users seeking personalization within their browsing experience, one must ask whether such offerings distract from more pressing concerns about usability and performance efficiency.
Your concerns are valid; however, one could argue that emphasizing personalization also fosters deeper user engagement.
‘Your browsing history and any cookies are automatically erased’—how reassuring! Isn’t this akin to being told your secrets are safe with your chatty neighbor? We all know how ‘automatic’ features can sometimes lead to more confusion than clarity. If I wanted a condescending parental figure making decisions about my online behavior, I’d call my mom instead of downloading a browser! Let’s hope Mozilla can manage their boundaries better than they manage our browsing habits!
