03 - Browsing the Web Securely and Privately

  This week, I discuss how to browse the Web securely and privately, as well as which browsers and extensions I recommend and those I recommend you avoid like the plague. Windows 10— including IE/Edge — is spyware designed to harvest your data. So now are Windows 7 and 8. Apple Keeps Deleted Safari History — even in "Private Browsing" mode. I recommend the Brave Browser. Here is the story behind it.  In this week's episode, I made a reference to The Cathedral and the Bazaar. Browser add-ons / plug-ins / extensions I recommend: HTTPS Everywhere Privacy Badger NoScript For even more private browsing: Tor Browser The best private operating system (used by Ed Snowden to communicate with journalists) Tails Enemy of the [Surveillance] State is written, produced, and narrated by C. Mitchell Shaw. Theme song was composed and recorded by Michael Leavitt.
