        Yes, but also non existent US privacy policy. There the users are simply raw material for the benefit of large corporations and user rights an incomprehensible communist phrase, to make America great again. The EU at least put limits to these abuses.

        Also from the “European” recommendations, Vivaldi is Chromium, and Mullvad is Tor, which is Firefox.
