Beautifully designed, privacy-focused, and packed with features.

My browser recommendation, if you’re looking for something that’s open source and pretty competent, it’s a fork of Firefox with some pretty unique functionality.

        The attack surface is the flaw. The chain of trust is the flaw/risk.

        Who’s behind the project? Who has control? How’s the release handled? What are the risks and vulnerabilities of the entirely product delivery?

        It’s much more obvious and established/vetted with Mozilla. With any other fork product, you first have to evaluate it yourself.

        No, this is (to my knowledge anyway) a theoretical problem. But it is very much a real risk, as demonstrated by the xz backdoor.

        We should be very careful who we trust, especially for browsers, because a compromise could be catastrophic.
