That is not my website I found about it here on HN. I wonder how Orion compares to other browsers.
- SahAssar 4y agoI think that site does not give adequate context to understand the results. Making privacy a check/no-check mark on things that 99.9% of people do not understand does not improve privacy and there are lots of nuances that are not communicated. Even people who do understand the context and platform do not understand what some parts of it means.
- smoldesu 4y ago> Several months after first publishing the website, I became an employee of Brave Fair disclosure from the "About" page, for anyone reading it and noticing Brave's subtly-aligned checkmarks. I'm willing to assume goodwill in a lot of places, but if this was a Firefox or Chrome employee I'd be saying the same thing.
- freediver 4y agoUnfortunately the site does not test for the the primary source of personal information leakage in browsers - telemetry.
- DavideNL 4y agoWhat they don’t mention is: they’re testing only the default browser settings (a clean install.) Almost nobody uses the default settings… the results are misinterpreted by most people.
