Hardening makes only then sense if it takes long time to fix protocol related stuff, e.g. Vivaldi is ranked 11th while Chromium is ranked 21st. Better install another 100 addons and remove everything and think you are more secure, you definitly not get much benefit from that, except problems on some pages. But since only less people understand it, it’s like praying in the dessert. It’s false sense to think that removing everything helps in this case if most attacks not even work like that.Īnother example is HTML5 and the auto-download problem, people then using maybe infected addons to stopping this, instead that needs to be fixed within browser/protocol, which also would reduce a lot of attack scenarious. The problem is to remove everything make less sense, since a lot of pages will start using it, it would be ‘smarter’ to fix this in protocols itself so that even if a ‘ Malicious’ page could’t abuse it even if they want it. WebRTC is a protocol which is not more or less secure like evrything other protocol. The other gimmicks like WebRTC are not really for securing anything, it’s more gimmick.

Binaries are stripped from the source tree.Features that communicate with Google or weaken privacy are removed or disabled.It behaves in most regards just like Chromium but with the following main differences: Ungoogled-Chromium is a fork of Chromium that strips many of these bits out of the browser to improve user privacy.
