Chrome vs. Firefox part 2
As i mentioned earlier, Firefox is not that different when it comes to privacy than googles Chrome.
Well to make it short: Firefox 3 sends (by default) private things (in my opinion) to Mozilla and it’s Partners (which the biggest one is Google). I dunno really if what i’m telling you now is all you need to do, there might be some other hidden things, but it seems that by typing the almighty „about:config“ into the „awesomebar“, and then searching for „browser.safebrowsing.enabled“ and simply click the line (should be false now) stops this behaviour.
There are several other interesting things under the „browser.safebrowsing“ branch, but that’s another story written on another day.
