Based on https://privacytests.org

Desktop browsers in their current stable versions, sorted from better (left) to worse (right). These are:

Librewolf, Mullvad, Brave, Tor, Safari, Chromium/Ungoogled, Firefox, Edge, Opera, Vivaldi, Chrome.

Note: Each test is counted with a value of one in this chart, however each test may not have an equal importance in regard to privacy. It still gives an image of which browsers value privacy and which do not.

The maximum (worst possible) score is 143.

Edit: Also FUCK BRAVE. But for other reasons than these points. Read the description before you vote or comment ffs…

    Even though it’s not, it certainly looks like one. It’s what your readers perceive that matters. I write a little blog about family life in a local newspaper. I write the content before it is published, but after publication, the text belongs to the readers. I have no possibility of altering the content after reading the comments and understanding what the people think the text is expressing. It wouldn’t matter, anyway, as none will come back later to read the updated version and almost everyone will read it in the first few hours after publication. Editing after publication is futile. This is just to underpin that, explaining a graph on a different website is bonkers, as only data analysts will actually follow the link to understand the data behind the graph. “Normal” people will take the graph as is and jump to the most obvious conclusion: “Librewolf, Mullvad, Brave, Chromium are all better than Firefox, and Chrome is the worst!”. Or even better, “Ah, a list of browsers. Chrome seems to be the best one. Cool! scroll”. Those are the ones that didn’t even comment or up- or downvote the post. You won’t ever know who or how many those people are. The best approach might indeed be to delete the post, build yourself some data visualization knowledge, and come back with an improved graph. Also, even though you say it’s impossible to weigh the individual points in the tests, this might still be something you have to do to get your message across, whatever that might be. It involves work. You’ll be ok. Making mistakes like this and posting them publicly is what will give you the information you need to improve.
