    You can use Nebulo or something like that.

    It would be great to enlighten us with the source of your concerns.

    You can check exactly what NextDNS gets from you.

    Do you think that by using DoT your user agent will disappear?

    Maybe you should use a browser which doesn't show your device brand, model... Like Brave, Tor,  Firefox...

    This is FUD, all well known DoH clients empty their user-agent and have no cookie jar. We use DoH because we can use this metadata to efficiently transport client information when the user enables "Send Device Name". This is especially useful in router setup like CLI.

      NextDNS this means until i enable send my device name my metadata( like user agent )will not be stored on the servers

      Am i right?

      Anonymous the client info is sent as special headers (or can be set in the path too). It is logged if sent (enabled on the client) and if you enabled logging.

      "It is important to decouple privacy from security — this article does not attempt to compare the privacy practices of each browser but rather their resistance to exploitation."

      Now tell me when was the last time a weakness in Firefox was actively exploited? Since it is so insecure it should be common, right?

      In the end, to be secure is not a single thing, solution.

      losnad privacy isn't possible with security.

      Also, the article/ site does speak about privacy: Browser Tracking | Madaidan's Insecurities (madaidans-insecurities.github.io) + Security and Privacy Advice | Madaidan's Insecurities (madaidans-insecurities.github.io)

      Firefox include a lot of telemetry which even can't be disabled in GUI. They're sponsored by Google and always follow what Google say.

      Firefox provide weak protection for your privacy and all these tweaks only makes you unique and easily trackable. Marketshare for Firefox is ridiculous which show exactly how bad they are.

      I don't want to start a contradiction match.

      I have different opinions.

      That site is not the internet security and privacy Bible. Is just a bunch of biased opinions. I want proof of Firefox used security weaknesses in the real world.

      Firefox was paid by Google for the search engine.

      If you feel better protected from Google while using a Google product, go ahead.

      All browsers have telemetry and there are studies which checked exactly what each browser does. I checked how much is from Firefox, Brave, Opera, Edge.

      Market share says nothing. Sheeps follow the flock. By these argument Google DNS is better than NextDNS, right?  And all the people putting their lifes in Zuckerberg hands are geniuses who knows what is best for them.

      For me, the order is this: Tor, Firefox, Brave, Opera. I will die before I will use Chrome and I avoid everything Google as much as I can.

      I don't have any horse in this race, I don't try to convince anyone, everyone is free to use what they want.
