Bigfoot Browser
Private by default.
Privacy shouldn't be a checkmark on a web page. Bigfoot blocks trackers and ads by default, because your browsing is your business.
What Bigfoot does not do
The short list.
- No ads of its own, sponsored placements, or replacement ads.
- No telemetry, no usage reports, and no log files sent anywhere.
- No account to create and no profile to build.
- No add-ons, so nothing installed in your browser can read your pages.
- No proxying of your ordinary browsing through Bigfoot servers.
Ads and trackers, blocked
Blocked before they load.
Protection is on from the first page. Bigfoot blocks ads and never puts its own in their place, because there is nothing to sell you. It uses the same kind of block lists the best blockers rely on, updated daily and signed on the way to you. Standard blocks known advertising and tracking. Aggressive blocks more and may break some sites. If a page needs it, turn protection off for that site alone.
No add-ons, on purpose
Nothing to install. Nothing to trust blindly.
Add-ons are where browsers get hurt. Each one asks to read every page you visit, and no store can promise what it does with that. Bigfoot builds in what an everyday browser needs, so you never have to hand a stranger the keys.
Private, not just incognito
Private windows that are actually private.
Private windows keep separate, temporary website data and never take part in the network. Your ordinary browsing is never proxied, reported, or kept anywhere but on your device.
Your identity
You own your identity.
Your Bigfoot identity belongs to you, not to a company. No company can suspend it, sell it, or lock you out of it, and it goes with you to any device. Keep a backup, and it stays yours for good.
