Specifically, the study examined the browsers’ sending of data-including unique identifiers and details related to typed URLs-that could be used to track users over time. He analyzed and rated the privacy provided by Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Brave, Edge, and Yandex.
The rankings were revealed in a research paper published by Trinity College Dublin computer scientist Doug Leith. Brave, the upstart browser that makes privacy a priority, ranked the highest.
Yandex, the less-popular browser developed by the Russian Web search provider Yandex, shared that dubious distinction. Microsoft Edge received the lowest privacy rating in a recently published study that compared the user information collected by major browsers.
