What privacy? You do realize the browser has access to all the data it renders right?

Mostly not sharing with ISPs, and blocking trackers, cookies and some ads natively is nice too.

Right but you also have to trust that the browser doesn't send your info to its mothership. Because unlike cookies, trackers and such, it has access to all your data.

Doesn't google already know what shade of pink/brown my asshole is?
