Are you a Firefox shill?
Anyways:
Firefox plots a fully anonymous Internet
From the article:
Firefox wants to ensure the possibility of true online anonymity for Internet users.
On Monday, Mozilla — the company behind Firefox — revealed a project aiming to guarantee freedom from online tracking and the ability to browse the Web incognito.
“We want to advance the state of the art in privacy features, with a specific focus on bringing them to more mainstream audiences,” said Denelle Dixon-Thayer, who leads Mozilla’s public policy and legal teams, in a blog post on the so-called "Polaris" privacy initiative.
The software company is working on Polaris with the Tor Project, famous for its anonymity software, and the digital rights advocate Center for Democracy & Technology.
The groups’ efforts are another development in the ongoing back-and-forth between private companies and governments over access to consumer data.
Polaris would enable Tor to “work more quickly and easily” on the Firefox browser, Dixon-Thayer said. Tor allows users to surf the Internet undetected, and gives websites the ability to hide from detection.
