We are getting closer to the final version of Firefox and every day it gets better. In this latest beta version, in addition to the usual bug fixes, some new features are incorporated. Among all of them, the most interesting is the option to prevent websites (Google?) from tracking our behavior (pages visited, words written, etc.). |
I don't want to be tracked
These kinds of things are why you learn to love Firefox: its commitment to users. The latest Beta version of Firefox includes a new feature for prevent websites from tracking your behavior (where you click, what sites you browse, etc.). It is not about the use of anonymous proxies or anything like that ...
This feature is available under: Preferences> Advanced> Tell websites I don't want to be tracked. When enabled, Firefox sends a header to the website in question indicating that the user does not want their behavior to be tracked. Obviously, whether this feature is applied will depend on whether the website does or does not pay attention to what is requested by the user. The truth is that it is a new idea that, if it were to be taken up by some important websites, could increase the control by users of the information (in this case, of their behavior "history", etc.).
Firefox, once again, does its bit to build a better Internet, improving the privacy of users by not sharing browsing data with third parties, which is usually used by companies (Google?) To offer personalized banners, among other things.
When the final?
It's great but I don't use it because I can't get comfortable like Chromium. I use a netbook.
Early March, maybe?
Good, but I think the Mozilla team should worry about finishing the product soon and stopping testing it so much.

Mozilla Firefox is very noticeable to Google Chrome ??? = (very similar ...
As you can see the resemblance to Chrome ... they just needed to load the search box and put an omnibar as in Firefox Mobile. Even so, the way the menu has been implemented makes me choose Firefox again, even though it is similar. The speed has improved, but I still want to be able to touch the add-ons without requiring a restart. And the anti-tracking button ... They better hurry up with the updates, because they will remove the button, and the various companies that use that system will change slightly to obtain the information and if they do not go minimally fast the button will not do much good. Also at least we will give you the information that we use Firefox 4, as it is the only one who has been smart to add something like that. I hope they include avoiding reboots with extensions for the final version!
Well, if you are like with its interface, try it, that the resemblance to it is amazing. And if you only search in Google and do not use that search box you can delete it directly to make it more like Chromium. The only thing is that instead of having the main menu in a button in the address bar, you have it in the tab bar.
