Have you ever used a privacy (proxy/vpn) based browser on the mac?

If you think the only way to have privacy is to use a specific browser
with a built-in VPN/proxy, you ain't too bright.

Even though Epic Privacy Browser was, by far, the best out there, it's apparently no longer working so it behooves us to learn to build our own.

For those who wish to build their own privacy-based web browser out of
common components, I wrote a tutorial here that works on all platforms.

*Tutorial: How to Transfer & Install Chrome Web Store Extensions to Ungoogled Chromium*
<https://al.howardknight.net/?STYPE=msgid&MSGI=%3C105ptvs%242ihi%241%40nnrp.usenet.blueworldhosting.com%3E>

The first part covers how to add well-behaved open source extensions (such
as uBlock Origin) to Ungoogled Chromium, while the second part covers how
to add less-well-behaved proprietary extensions (such as Hide.Me VPN).

Note that a third post in that tutorial explains Linux/MacOS/Windows paths.

As always, if you know of a better way to build your own privacy
based web browser out of common components, please improve!
