   Crowds can be intelligent. Crowds can be stupid. It's interesting how they can really be at either extreme.

   Better to use Epic Privacy Browser with a built-in ENCRYPTED proxy that's fast over SPDY (not a simple unencrypted http proxy).

   Interesting! The Epic Privacy Browser has built-in tracker-blocking and a lot more privacy protections, plus it's built on faster, more secure chromium.

   Many privacy extensions do protect some privacy on one hand, but then take away some on the other hand e.g. block trackers but collect other information on your browsing to sell (data business model). Using addons is thus risky. Firefox u

   You should try the Epic Privacy Browser if privacy matters to you but you still want the speed/security of chromium.

    Epic Privacy Browser is a great choice for a chrome alternative, especially if privacy matters to you.

    Firefox gets nearly $1mn/day from Google...they're using your browsing history to target new tab page ads to you...they're not a good choice if you care about privacy. They have, though, pressured Yahoo to do some good stuff

    Thanks for the mention of our Epic Privacy Browser (fast, secure & private). This looks like an interesting project as well, very ambitious. Java is an interesting choice (I've found it a pain to work in). You should post the na

    Let us know what else you'd like. We've gotten many requests for 1password who we hope to support soon. We get many requests for various privacy addons which are redundant with Epic and more of a privacy threat than a boon.

    Study countries like Singapore, Korea. They are countries that in the last 50 years or so were able to escape poverty in just one or two generations. Maybe even Vietnam or Thailand which I think are not quite in poverty so not nearly as p

    Try EpicBrowser.com -- built on chromium but designed to protect your privacy with everything Google ripped out.

    I wish his browser NetCaptor (why not NetCopter?) had ridden the wave of massive growth via tabbed browsing that got Firefox & Maxthon really big -- Adam deserved it. (...I also wish Adam used our Epic Privacy Browser instead of Chrome

    Great for what looks like a spontaneous turnout!! Every bit helps (look at this photo/post reaching the top of hacker news) -- I've been a part of much smaller demonstrations :-) Net neutrality needs to be protected & it&#x27

    Try the Epic Privacy Browser -- a chromium based browser that rips out all google calls/services and protects your privacy -- it blocks ads and trackers and philosophically doesn't send your browsing through its servers nor collec

    Subscription Models Could Emerge. There are already tens of millions of folks using ad blocking. Anti-ad-blocking technology is not difficult to implement. OKCupid had nice messages asking for donations to adblock users. Reddit thanks use

    Epic at present blocks tons of fingerprinting scripts. Comments above seem right to us as well that user-agent doesn't make sense to use from a fingerprinting perspective. Fonts+Plugins do though. We actually do and could've re
