Do you come from the church of GrapheneOS? Why are you spreading misinformation? DivestOS page tells me all Firefox based browsers except IceCat have strong site isolation.
Firefox calls per-site process isolation Fission and is enabled by default on desktop. Fission is not yet enabled by default on Android, and when manually enabled it results in a severely degraded/broken experience. Furthermore Firefox on Android does not take advantage of Android’s isolatedProcess flag for completely sandboxing application services.
Read before you send :)
I use Firefox on my PC, but as I stated Firefox on Android is lacking basic security features.
Fission is possible to enable experimentally. Your implication about site isolation was ambiguous, so it is you who is wrong with not making clear the nuances.
haha cope harder friend, by default Firefox lacks site isolation. Enabling it is highly experimental 🤣 Before linking something and claiming I’m spreading misinformation (quite a serious claim to me because i spend my days coding foss privacy focused software) read the entire article 1st and when someone points out your wrong, learn how to take a loss.
Also Android Firefox doesn’t take advantage of Android isolated processes, what Android chrome based browser’s do
You are the one who failed to differentiate between site isolation and process isolation, and which one of these was lacking on desktop or mobile. There you go, you are twice as wrong now. Refer to the theme and context of this post discussion before doubling down. I would say you need to heed to your advice.
If you are coding something that has internet access, I would steer clear of it.
Oohh I know what must be happening, the highly experimental features you’ve enabled on Android Firefox must of messed up the pages. Explains why you can’t read.
Enjoy using your crypto laced spyware browser (or if you are not using Brave, spyware ridden browser) 😊 but do not promote bullshit here. Facts are not just objective but also contextual. Privacy is not the same as security. Big Tech Security™ is devoid of privacy for the most part.
As I said I not a fan of Brave (mostly because of the crypto stuff), calling it spyware you could say is hhmmmm “misinformation”. Yes security and privacy are different concepts but they are closely linked. If your browser fails to stop malicious code from being executed, you might find this impacts your privacy.
Matter of facts is, Android Firefox lacks site isolation. Yes you can enable a highly experimental version of site isolation what will break your browser (admitted by your source) and may even fail to isolate sites altogether. Android Firefox doesn’t use isolated processes, a functionality what can’t be enabled.
I’m not sure what your goal is with this discussion, but obviously you don’t have any regard for privacy or security. Your arguments over semantics are obviously in bad fair (and not even accurate to the original discussion).
To reiterate for the millionth time, feel free to use Firefox on Android, I’m avoiding using Firefox due to large security concerns. Once Mozilla finishes implementing site isolation and process isolation, I’ll be the 1st one to move off Brave and into Firefox.
But for your own future reference, actually source articles what support your statements. Otherwise don’t get upset when someone points that out.
Firefox Android DOES NOT lack site isolation. It lacks process isolation turned on by default. Firefox fully isolates site data. These are 2 different things. This is the fact that is being pointed out to you. If you are buying into nonsensical security theater claims being made by a bunch of Big Tech Security™ believers, that is YOUR fault.
Stop misinterpreting the article’s table purposely to fit your claim. Just so that people do not get lost here, this is the article: https://divestos.org/pages/browsers Per-site data isolation, tracking protection and per-site process isolation are separate features.
Any browser that cannot run uBlock Origin (or similar granular script blocker) with the ability to manually toggle scripts and set their own script/domain rules is an insecure browser. This makes Firefox on both desktop and Android incredibly more secure than any Chrome based browser out there, period.
You are free to use your favourite Chrome based browser with no uBlock Origin style capabilities and Google’s security that disregards user’s privacy and security against random website scripts. But you may not promote this here, or the nonsense about Firefox’s site isolation for website data, which factually exists on Android.
