<p>Badwolf is a minimalist and privacy-oriented web browser based on WebKitGTK.</p>

<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="green">Not Spyware</span></h2>

|

<p>BadWolf is a pretty decent browser worth looking into. A couple of neat features worth noting is that BadWolf has a JavaScript switch and an image viewer switch, which is useful for daily tasks.</p>

<p>

Bing is yet another spyware search engine that collects your

information and sells it to advertisers. It's strongly recommended
|

that you do not use Bing.

</p>
|

<p>
|

At some point Bing had a privacy policy, but Microsoft doesn't seem to
|

be hosting it anymore. So, this article will look at the Microsoft
|
||||
Privacy Statement<sup><a href="#s1">[1]</a></sup> to help us
|
||||
understand what information Bing collects. Similarly to the privacy
|
||||
policies of Google and Apple, the Microsoft privacy statement eclipses
|
||||
the entire spyware platform and does not help you understand in great
|
||||
detail what kind of information one single program could be
|
||||
collecting. (although this policy is more specific)

<h1>Brave</h1>
|
||||
<center>
|
||||
<a href="brave_ru.html">[Русский]</a>
|
||||
</center>
|
||||
<p>Brave Browser is a Chromium fork with many interesting features not found elsewhere, such as built-in Adblock and other extensions, fingerprinting protection, a cleaner Preferences menu compared to other Chrome forks, and the (opt-in) ability to automatically support (pay) the websites you visit. The developers describe it as <i>"A browser with your interests at heart."</i><sup><a href="#one">[1]</a></sup> with the built-in privacy protections.</p>
|
||||
<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="orange">High</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>Brave is self updating software, uses <a href="../articles/google.html">Google</a> as the default search engine, has built-in telemetry, and even has an opt-out rss-like news feed similar to Firefox Pocket. These shouldn't be the things that come to mind if someone were to imagine a privacy oriented browser.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Auto-updates</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave will check for updates every time you run it, and you can't turn it off from the browser. Athough, it's on Brave's low priority list to add an option to do so.<sup><a href="#two">[2]</a></sup> The reason why it's low priority would be because it's been over a year and there hasn't been an implementation of it yet.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Brave has built-in telemetry</h3>
|
||||
<p>While running, Brave will make lots of requests to the domain <code>p3a.brave.com</code> as telemetry. They claim they store the collected data for several days.<sup><a href="#eight">[8]</a></sup> This feature is an opt-out that can be disabled. This opt-out can be disabled <a href="brave://settings/privacy">here</a>.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Brave Today</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave now has new feature similar to Firefox Pocket called Brave Today. If you don't know what Firefox Pocket is, it's basically an rss-like news feed that's shown in every blank tab. This feature Brave has is sadly an opt-out rather than an opt-in and sends lots of requests to Brave's servers. It can't seem to be disabled it in and of itself, but <a href="brave://settings/newTab">setting the tabs to blank</a> seems to stop the requests.</p>
|
||||
<h3>SafeBrowsing</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave uses SafeBrowsing. It's a feature that tries to "protect" the user from potentially unsafe websites and extensions. However, it sends requests to fetch the information required. Brave's SafeBrowsing is powered by google.<sup><a href="#ten">[10]</a></sup> This opt-out can be disabled <a href="brave://settings/security">here</a>.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Brave Rewards</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave has a rewards program. You can find more information about it here.<sup><a href="#three">[3]</a></sup> At first glance it looks like the rewards program is an opt-in, but the browser makes requests to these domains regardless if you sign up or not:</p>
|
||||
<div class="center">
|
||||
<p><code>rewards.brave.com</code></p>
|
||||
<p><code>api.rewards.brave.com</code></p>
|
||||
<p><code>grant.rewards.brave.com</code></p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<p>A quick update: These requests have been reported as a bug and for the most part have been fixed (with a couple exceptions). I'll remove this section once the bug has been completely fixed.<sup><a href="#twelve">[12]</a></sup></p>
|
||||
<h3>Miscellaneous requests worth noting</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave on first run sends a request to fetch the library used for checking spelling errors:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-dict.png" alt="brave spelling library"/>
|
||||
<p>Brave on startup sends a request to <code>variations.brave.com</code>. Brave uses this to turn on and off features. There isn't a way to disable this as of yet.<sup><a href="#eleven">[11]</a></sup></p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-cert.png" alt="brave verification tool"/>
|
||||
<p>Brave fetches the list of affiliates through <code>laptop-updates.brave.com</code>:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/custom-headers.png" alt="custom headers"/>
|
||||
<p>Brave makes a request to <code>static1.brave.com</code> every once and a while, which looks like it's used to fetch plugin information?<sup><a href="#four">[4]</a></sup> When the url was placed into the browser, it was directed to Google's error 404 page.<sup><a href="#nine">[9]</a></sup></p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-static.png" alt="static brave"/>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/google-brave.png" alt="google error 404"/>
|
||||
<p>A quick <code>curl --head static1.brave.com</code> shows that Brave uses Google's gstatic, which uses Cloudflare as well:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-gstatic.png" alt="google error 404"/>
|
||||
<p>On the first run, Brave fetches five extensions from <code>brave-core-ext.s3.brave.com</code> and tries to install them:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-extensions.png" alt="brave extensions"/>
|
||||
<h3>Not spyware related, but worth noting</h3>
|
||||
<h3>Anti-privacy search engine by default</h3>
|
||||
<p><a href="../articles/google.html">Google</a> is the default search engine of Brave. For a browser that claims to be privacy oriented, this is a red flag. They at least make it easy for you to change the default search engine on the first run.</p>

<h1>Brave</h1>
|
||||
<center>
|
||||
<a href="brave.html">[English]</a>
|
||||
</center>
|
||||
<p>Brave Browser - форк Chromium'а со множеством интересных возможностей, которых нет где-либо еще, такие как встроенный блокировщик рекламы и другие расширения, защита от отпечатков браузера, менее загруженное меню по сравнению с другими форками Chrome и встроенная возможность для автоматического пожертвования сайтам, которые вы посещаете. Разработчики описывают его как <i>"Браузер, защищающий ваши интересы"</i><sup><a href="#one">[1]</a></sup> со встроенной защитой конфиденциальности пользователя.</p>
|
||||
<h2>Уровень слежки: <span class="orange">Высокий</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>Brave обновляется автоматически, использует <a href="../articles/google.html">Google</a> в качестве поисковика по умолчанию, имеет встроенную телеметрию и даже имеет ленту новостей, похожую на Firefox Pocket. Этого не должно быть в браузере, который ориентирован на конфиденциальность пользователя.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Автоматические обновления</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave будет проверять обновления каждый раз, когда вы его запускаете, и вы не можете это отключить. Добавление данной опции обладает низким приоритетом в разработке Brave<sup><a href="#two">[2]</a></sup>, так как прошло уже больше года и её всё еще нет.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Brave has built-in telemetry</h3>
|
||||
<p>Во время работы Brave будет делать много запросов к домену <code>p3a.brave.com</code> в качестве телеметрии. Они утверждают, что хранят данные только несколько дней<sup><a href="#eight">[8]</a></sup>. Эта опция может быть отключена <a href="brave://settings/privacy">здесь</a>.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Brave Today</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave содержит сервис похожий на Firefox Pocket - Brave Today. Это новостная лента, которая показывается на каждой пустой новой вкладке. Эта возможность к сожалению включена по умолчанию и посылает множество запросов к серверам Brave. Кажется, что нельзя отключить эту опцию, но если <a href="brave://settings/newTab">установить новые вкладки как пустые</a>, то похоже, что это останавливает запросы.</p>
|
||||
<h3>SafeBrowsing</h3>
|
||||
<p>Brave использует SafeBrowsing. Это функция, которая пытается "защитить" пользователя от возможных небезопасных веб-сайтов и расширений. Однако, она посылает запросы, чтобы получить требуемую информацию. Brave SafeBrowsing поддерживается Google<sup><a href="#ten">[10]</a></sup>. Данная функция может быть отключена <a href="brave://settings/security">здесь</a>.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Brave Rewards</h3>
|
||||
<p>У Brave есть программа вознаграждений<sup><a href="#three">[3]</a></sup>. На первый взгляд кажется, что она необязательна, но браузер делает запросы к доменам ниже независимо от регистрации в программе:</p>
|
||||
<div class="center">
|
||||
<p><code>rewards.brave.com</code></p>
|
||||
<p><code>api.rewards.brave.com</code></p>
|
||||
<p><code>grant.rewards.brave.com</code></p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<p>Небольшое дополнение: об этих запросах сообщалось как об ошибках, и по большей части они исправлены (за несколькими исключениями). Этот раздел будет удалён, как только ошибки будут полностью исправлены<sup><a href="#twelve">[12]</a></sup>.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Другие запросы которые стоит отметить</h3>
|
||||
<p>При первом запуске Brave отправляет запрос, чтобы получить библиотеку для проверки орфографии.</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-dict.png" alt="brave spelling library"/>
|
||||
<p>При старте Brave посылает запросы к <code>variations.brave.com</code>. Brave использует это для включения и выключения функций. Пока нет никакого способа отключить это<sup><a href="#eleven">[11]</a></sup>.</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-cert.png" alt="brave verification tool"/>
|
||||
<p>Brave получает список партнёров через запросы к <code>laptop-updates.brave.com</code>:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/custom-headers.png" alt="custom headers"/>
|
||||
<p>Время от времени Brave делает запрос к <code>static1.brave.com</code>, что выглядит как будто он пытается получить информацию о плагинах<sup><a href="#four">[4]</a></sup>. В браузере эта ссылка ведёт на страницу Google с ошибкой 404<sup><a href="#nine">[9]</a></sup>.</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-static.png" alt="static brave"/>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/google-brave.png" alt="google error 404"/>
|
||||
<p>Команда <code>curl --head static1.brave.com</code> показывает, что Brave использует Google gstatic, который также использует Cloudflare:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-gstatic.png" alt="google error 404"/>
|
||||
<p>При первом запуске Brave скачивает пять расширений из <code>brave-core-ext.s3.brave.com</code> и пытается установить их:</p>
|
||||
<img class="screenshot" src="../images/brave/brave-extensions.png" alt="brave extensions"/>
|
||||
<h3>Не связано со слежением, но стоит отметить</h3>
|
||||
<h3>Неконфиденциальный поисковик по умолчанию</h3>
|
||||
<p><a href="../articles/google.html">Google</a> - стандартная поисковая система в Brave. Это очень странно для браузера, позиционирующего себя приватным. По крайней мере, при первом запуске Brave даёт выбор поисковой системы по умолчанию.</p>

<h1>CCleaner</h1>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
CCleaner, developed by Piriform, is a utility program used to clean
|
||||
potentially unwanted files and invalid Windows Registry entries from a
|
||||
computer.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="red">EXTREMELY HIGH</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
CCleaner is spyware that collects your personal information to
|
||||
advertise to you. It also sells your information to third parties so
|
||||
that they can advertise to you. It collects a huge amount of very
|
||||
personal information, like your
|
||||
<b><font color="red">physical location.</font></b> CCleaner uses the
|
||||
technique of privacy policy obfuscation where it provides one privacy
|
||||
policy for every single product its company offers, making it more
|
||||
difficult to know what parts of the privacy policy apply to which
|
||||
program.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>CCleaner collects and sells user information to advertisers</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
CCleaner clearly shows in its privacy settings that it is collecting
|
||||
information about your computer and selling that information to
|
||||
advertisers. Below is a screenshot on how to mitigate some of it.

<h3>CCleaner tracks a huge amount of personal information</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If we look at the privacy policy, we can see that CCleaner reports the
|
||||
following<sup><a href="#s3">[3]</a></sup
|
||||
>:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>IP Address</li>
|
||||
<li>Unique User ID</li>
|
||||
<li>Operating System</li>
|
||||
<li>Other Avast Products installed</li>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<b><font color="red">physical location</font></b>

|

following<sup><a href="#s3">[3]</a></sup
|
||||
>:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>IP Address</li>
|

<li>Unique User ID</li>

<li>
|

<b><font color="red">physical location</font></b>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Beyond this, CCleaner is integrated with the following spyware
|
||||
platforms, which all collect their own sets of information:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Google Analytics</li>
|
||||
<li>Logentries</li>
|
||||
</ul>

|

|

</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
It would be very time-consuming to go through all of those privacy
|
||||
policies (especially because many of these are obfuscated), but it
|
||||
should be enough to understand that CCleaner is full of third party
|
||||
spyware, as well as first party spyware.

|
||||
<h3>CCleaner sends you spam email</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
From the privacy policy<sup><a href="#s3">[3]</a></sup

|

</p>
|

<p>
|
||||
<i>
|
||||
"When we collect your email address, we may market our other
|
||||
products and services to you. You may choose to unsubscribe from
|
||||
future email marketing by following the instructions in the email."
|
||||
</i>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>CCleaner tracks your physical location</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
According to the privacy policy, the CCleaner website tries to track
|
||||
your physical location.<sup><a href="#s3">[3]</a></sup>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<i>

basic information about the computer, tablet, or mobile phone that

you use to visit us."

</i>
|

</p>
|

<p>
|
||||
<i>"location data"</i> is also mentioned when talking about the

information that CCleaner itself collects about its users.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>Past Security Flaws</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In the past, CCleaner has been compromised and backdoors have been
|
||||
added to it.<sup><a href="#s1">[1]</a></sup>

It would be very time-consuming to go through all of those privacy
|

policies (especially because many of these are obfuscated), but it
|
||||
should be enough to understand that CCleaner is full of third party
|
||||
spyware, as well as first party spyware.

Internet Explorer contains many serious spyware features, however all of these features appear to be "opt-out" features. It is not verified whether or not opting out will actually disable all of these features, or if there are other spyware features that are not known which cannot be opted out of. Internet Explorer can record your search history and location, and report that information to Microsoft. Internet Explorer is not the worst spyware, but it is still loaded with spyware features that can mine serious information from users.

<h1>HyperText Transmission Protocol</h1>
|
||||
<p>HTTP is a protocol usually used for transferring HyperText Markup Language documents accross the internet.</p>
|
||||
<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="yellow">Not Rated</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>HTTP is a protocol that is not designed with the privacy of its users in mind. The language used in the HTTP specification explicitly says that the protocol was designed with enabling the datamining of its users in mind, and contains features that are not absolutely necessary for the purpose of the protocol, but allow the protocol compromise user privacy.</p>
|
||||
<h3>"User-Agent" Datamining feature</h3>
|
||||
<p>Section 14.43<sup><a href="#one">[1]</a></sup> of the HTTP specification details the "User-Agent" feature of the protocol that, when implemented, will attach information about your computing enviroment that can be used to track you. The biggest danger of the User-Agent is that there is no way to anonymously opt-out of this- even if you do not provide a user-agent, because almost everyone else does, you will be tracked by the fact that you do <b>not</b> provide that information. There are many strategies to mitigate this, with only varying levels of success, but the problem is that this is the acceptable standard of how HTTP is used and not the forgotten feature that it should be. Not only does the User-Agent feature collect this unncessary information, its purpose is explicitly stated in the protocol specifications to aid in datamining.</p>
|
||||
<p><i>"The User-Agent request-header field contains information about the user agent originating the request. This is for <b>statistical purposes</b>, the tracing of protocol violations, and automated recognition of user agents for the sake of tailoring responses to avoid particular user agent limitations. User agents SHOULD include this field with requests."</i></p>
|
||||
<h3>Acknowledgement of HTTP's privacy problem</h3>
|
||||
<p>In the HTTP specification, the W3C explicitly acknowledges the serious privacy violations that implementations of this protocol are capable of comitting. Section 15.1<sup><a href="#two">[2]</a></sup> of the HTTP specification has a very detailed analysis of the implications of the comprimization of privacy that the User-Agent allows to happen and suggests how to use the User-Agent feature: as an opt-in feature where the privacy concerns of using such a feature are properly explained to the user. Even though this is a good section, it shows a very naive viewpoint from the W3C, the expectation that this feature would not be abused, and the expectation that implementers of this standard would respect the privacy of their users and would not use these features of the protocol to datamine users.</p>
|
||||
<p>At best, you could call this mindset naive. If you want to hold the W3C in contempt, you could call it malicious. It's easy to write in your standard that while you could use this protocol to monitor the behavior of users, you should ask for their permission. But once that standard is widely implemented, and is widely used for the exact malicious purpose that was acknowledged in its specification, who's fault is that?</p>

The language used in the HTTP specification explicitly says that the protocol was designed with enabling the datamining of its users in mind, and contains features that are not absolutely necessary for the purpose of the protocol, but allow the protocol compromise user privacy.</p>
|
||||
<h3>"User-Agent" Datamining feature</h3>
|
||||
<p>Section 14.43<sup><a href="#one">[1]</a></sup> of the HTTP specification details the "User-Agent" feature of the protocol that, when implemented, will attach information about your computing enviroment that can be used to track you. The biggest danger of the User-Agent is that there is no way to anonymously opt-out of this- even if you do not provide a user-agent, because almost everyone else does, you will be tracked by the fact that you do <b>not</b> provide that information. There are many strategies to mitigate this, with only varying levels of success, but the problem is that this is the acceptable standard of how HTTP is used and not the forgotten feature that it should be. Not only does the User-Agent feature collect this unncessary information, its purpose is explicitly stated in the protocol specifications to aid in datamining.</p>
|
||||
<p><i>"The User-Agent request-header field contains information about the user agent originating the request. This is for <b>statistical purposes</b>, the tracing of protocol violations, and automated recognition of user agents for the sake of tailoring responses to avoid particular user agent limitations. User agents SHOULD include this field with requests."</i></p>
|
||||
<h3>Acknowledgement of HTTP's privacy problem</h3>
|
||||
<p>In the HTTP specification, the W3C explicitly acknowledges the serious privacy violations that implementations of this protocol are capable of comitting. Section 15.1<sup><a href="#two">[2]</a></sup> of the HTTP specification has a very detailed analysis of the implications of the comprimization of privacy that the User-Agent allows to happen and suggests how to use the User-Agent feature: as an opt-in feature where the privacy concerns of using such a feature are properly explained to the user. Even though this is a good section, it shows a very naive viewpoint from the W3C, the expectation that this feature would not be abused, and the expectation that implementers of this standard would respect the privacy of their users and would not use these features of the protocol to datamine users.</p>
|
||||
<p>At best, you could call this mindset naive. If you want to hold the W3C in contempt, you could call it malicious. It's easy to write in your standard that while you could use this protocol to monitor the behavior of users, you should ask for their permission. But once that standard is widely implemented, and is widely used for the exact malicious purpose that was acknowledged in its specification, who's fault is that?</p>

<p>From their website: "Otter Browser aims to recreate the best aspects of the classic Opera (12.x) UI using Qt5." Their motto is: "Controlled by the user, not vice versa". Version tested: 0.9.12 (SlackBuild from slackbuilds.org). Program used for testing requests: Mitmproxy.</p>

<p>Otter Browser <b><span class="lime">makes no unsolicited requests at all.</span></b> It is fully open source. The developers, also, don't plan to include any spyware "features" in the future. This seems like a true privacy-based web browser (at least for now).</p>

<p>Qutebrowser is a keyboard-focused browser with a minimal GUI. It's based on Python and PyQt5 and free software, licensed under the GPL. Program tested: v1.6.1 for Debian Buster. Mitmproxy was used to check for connections.</p>

<p>Qutebrowser <span class="lime">makes no unsolicited requests at all</span>. It is also libre software. This web browser is a great choice to use, and there is nothing to complain about from a privacy standpoint. (although I don't really know how to use the User Interface that well...) So far this browser looks like it can stand tall in the ranks of the other privacy-respecting web browsers out there.</p>

Slimjet's website claims that it is very committed to user privacy, and that it blocks Google tracking, unlike Google Chrome<sup><a href="#s1">[1]</a></sup>. However, this claim is <b><font color=red>not true</font></b>. Slimjet is constantly sending information to google and connecting to google
|
||||
services. Slimjet claims to be concerned about privacy but ultimately retains just about all of the spyware features found in Google Chrome, as well as additional spyware added on by FlashPoint. In this way, Slimjet manages to implement all of the spyware that is found in browsers like Google Chrome, except instead of one company having this information, it's split up among several companies...

Obviously you can tell that any kind of service to sync your search history "in the cloud" is a privacy nightmare. Now both Google and Slimjet have access to your search history...

Na swojej stronie internetowej Slimjet twierdzi że jest bardzo zaangażowana w dbanie o prywatność użytkownika i blokuje śledzenie Google, w przeciwieństwie do Google Chrome<sup><a href="#s1">[1]</a></sup>. Jednak, to twierdzenie jest <b><font color=red>nieprawdziwe</font></b>. Slimjet stale wysyła informacje do Google i łączy się z ich
|
||||
usługami. Slimjet twierdzi że obawia się o prywatność ale ostatecznie zachowuje prawie wszystkie funkcje szpiegowskie znalezione w Google Chrome, jak również dodatkowe śledzenie dodane przez FlashPoint. W ten sposób, Slimjet udaje się zaimplementować całe oprogramowanie szpiegowskie które można znaleźć w przeglądarkach takich jak Google Chrome, z wyjątkiem tego że zamiast do jednej firmy która posiada te informacje, jest ono podzielone na kilka firm...

<h1>Tor Browser Bundle</h1>
|
||||
<p>Version tested: 11.0.3</p>
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
<p>Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security.<sup><a href="#s1">[1]</a></sup> This article is about the desktop Tor Browser Bundle, which is based on Firefox. Tor itself can be used with any browser.</p>
|
||||
<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="yellowgreen">Low</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>The Tor browser is a privacy focused web browser that is used to access the internet through the Tor Network. Connections through the Tor network are much more private than normal connections as you do not have an IP address that is associated with you. While spyware services can tell that you are connecting from the Tor network, their ability to identify and profile you is greatly reduced.</p>
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
<p>Tor Browser has automatic updates, and sends telemetry, albeit over Tor.</p>
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
<p>If you go to about:networking, you will see several addresses that are affiliated with Mozilla, even before Tor is connected. You can <a href="../guides/tbb.html">mitigate the spyware</a>, but note that there is a chance that it will be overwritten by future updates.</p>

<p>Telegram has some privacy problems such as the telephone number verification, and routing communications through official Telegram servers in most cases. However, Telegram contains privacy features and claims to not collect any user information<sup><a href="#1">[1]</a></sup>.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Telephone Number Required</h3>
|
||||
<p>Telegram features the more modern spyware feature that requires the user to associate their persistent user identity with a telephone number. This is obviously a breach of privacy, because Telegram requires the user to disclose this personal information.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Centralized communication routing</h3>
|
||||
<p>Telegram does not use peer-to-peer or private servers for the majority of its communications. This means that Telegram is capable of logging all of the communications you send through its service, unless you opt to only use the Peer-to-Peer features of Telegram. Centralized communication routing has a high potential to be spyware. Telegram attempts to use Peer-to-Peer communication for Voice Calls, but it may disclose IP address to the counterpart. Telegram claims in its privacy policy.<sup><a href="#one">[1]</a></sup> that it does not collect any information, but it is impossible to prove this.</p>
|
||||
<p>Telegram's server software is closed source and Telegram does not distribute its server software. There is no way for other people to host their own Telegram services because of this, meaning that the servers that the developers operate are the only choice for using this messaging platform.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Telegram does not follow its GPLv2 Obligations</h3>
|
||||
<p>Telegram clients are advertised as free software, but in practice the source code is not immediately accessible.<sup><a href="#two">[2]</a></sup>, the delay sometimes being up to 5 months. So, unknown spyware features could be in the official Telegram client binaries that you download, without you knowing. It's recommended that you build an outdated version of telegram from its source code, since it's not provable whether or not the binaries that are distributed have unknown spyware or not.</p>

<h1>Waterfox Classic</h1>
|
||||
<p>Version tested was 2020.10.</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Waterfox is a web browser that is a fork of <a href="../articles/firefox.html">Firefox</a>.
|
||||
Note: This article has a few issues. See <a href="https://codeberg.org/shadow/SpywareWatchdog/issues/117">this</a> for more details.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="yellow>">Medium</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Waterfox is a fork of Firefox that claims to be more private and secure
|
||||
than Firefox. However, Waterfox contains telemetry and shares
|
||||
information about you with Mozilla, and has other spyware features.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>Waterfox connects to spyware services when it is first run</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If you start up Waterfox for the first time, it will make <b><span class="red">55 requests</span></b><sup><a href="#s4">[4]</a></sup> to several spyware platforms, notably
|
||||
Matomo, and Mozilla online services like its Geolocation service, and several other Mozilla services, as
|
||||
well as Waterfox's own update service. You can look at a list of these requests
|
||||
<a href="../images/waterfox_classic_spyware.png">here</a>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>Waterfox is integrated into the "Firefox Accounts" spyware platform</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The "Firefox Accounts" platform allows you to sync a lot of sensitive
|
||||
information, such as your internet history, across all of your devices.
|
||||
This is, of course, all being stored on Mozilla's servers.<sup><a href="#s3">[3]</a></sup>
|
||||
This feature
|
||||
is opt-in spyware, but it should still be mentioned.
|
||||
If you don't want your internet history to be uploaded to Mozilla servers,
|
||||
don't use this feature.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>Waterfox is self updating software</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Self updates are a spyware feature since they are usually ways for the developer of a program to put spyware into their software without presenting it in a prominent way
|
||||
where the user can understand what they are giving up when they download the update.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Other known spywares, like Chromium, make use of this method</p>
|
||||
<h3>Not spyware related, but worth noting</h3>
|
||||
<h3>Anti-privacy search engine by default</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
By default Waterfox uses the search engine <a href="../articles/bing.html">Bing</a>.
|
||||
Why would a privacy-based Web Browser offer this search engine by default? The other offered search engines are not much better- we have the option of searching with Google,
|
||||
which also logs your internet searches, and Ecosia, which also logs your internet searches (but it gives them to Bing). The developers attitude towards these search engines is concerning:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<i>"Bing is actually quite good for privacy as well (let's not forget Mozilla even suggested them as a more privacy focused search back in 2009)."</i><sup><a href="#s2">[2]</a></sup>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
It's very clear that while the browser advertises itself as very privacy focused, the actual words and actions of the developers aren't consistent with this claim.

<h1>WebDiscover</h1>
|
||||
<p>WebDiscover is a web browser made by WebDiscover Media.</p>
|
||||
<h2>Spyware Level: <span class="red">EXTREMELY HIGH</span></h2>
|
||||
<p>WebDiscover uses the spyware search engine <a href="../articles/yahoo.html">Yahoo</a> as it's default search engine, but on its website it says it uses the spyware search engine <a href="../articles/bing.html">Bing</a> as it's default search engine. It is hard to review since every time I run it, it messes up MITMproxy so I can't see what it's doing. The privacy policy explains that it collects a large amount of personal information from its users, so it is at least not a secret that this browser is spyware. This program acts in a very suspicious way and the privacy policy contains a lot of language in it about the use of the information it collects that elevates it to a <b><span class="red">uniquely bad stance on user privacy and use of user information</span></b>, so I would recommend staying far away from it.</p>
|
||||
<h3>WebDiscover installs itself onto users computers through installer bundling</h3>
|
||||
<p>WebDiscover is mostly installed through other programs as an opt-out. This means that most users did not want to install this browser, and were tricked into doing it by other software's installer programs. For example<sup><a href="#2">[2]</a></sup>: <a href="../images/wd1.jpg">[1]</a> <a href="../images/wd2.jpg">[2]</a> <a href="../images/wd3.jpg">[3]</a> <a href="../images/wd4.jpg">[4]</a> <a href="../images/wd5.jpg">[5]</a> <a href="../images/wd6.jpg">[6]</a> <a href="../images/wd7.jpg">[7]</a> <a href="../images/wd8.jpg">[8]</a> <a href="../images/wd9.jpg">[9]</a> <a href="../images/cdex_bundling.png">[10]</a></p>
|
||||
<h3>WebDiscover collects a large amount of information about its users</h3>
|
||||
<p>According to its privacy policy<sup><a href="#1">[1]</a></sup>, WebDiscover collects the following information about its users as its browser is downloaded and used:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Web Browser type</li>
|
||||
<li>Operating System type and version</li>
|
||||
<li>Domain Name</li>
|
||||
<li>Browser version</li>
|
||||
<li>Browser usage and statistics</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>Some of this information is typical of the kind of info that is collected by developers who write programs that phone home using the HTTP protocol. However, WebDiscover also collects the following information about its users which is more concerning:</p>
|
||||
<p><i>"We may collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data when you download the Browser. We may also collect Personal Data when you send us information or communications directly. “Personal Data” means data that allows someone to identify or contact you including, without limitation, your name, physical address, electronic mail (email) address, phone number, and credit card information (collectively, your “Personal Data”) for the purposes of recording the transaction when you engage in activities on the Site or through use of the Browser."</i><sup><a href="#1">[1]</a></sup></p>
|
||||
<p>So, WebDiscover will profile your computer, and WebDiscover Media will use every opportunity they get to collect information about you.</p>
|
||||
<h3>WebDiscover sells information about its users</h3>
|
||||
<p>In this quote from the privacy policy:</p>
|
||||
<p><i>"We may share Anonymous Data with selected third parties and business partners..."</i></p>
|
||||
<p>Confirming that the information that WebDiscover collects about you will be sold to advertisers.</p>
|
||||
<h3>WebDiscover uses your personal information in a malicious way</h3>
|
||||
<p>WebDiscover sells your information to advertising companies that will send you junk mail separately from WebDiscover's discretion- it also DOES NOT comply with requests to stop contact, and requires you to separately request each company that it has sold your information to, to stop contacting you. I didn't check if they would comply with those requests or not. The following quotes from the privacy policy should explain this:</p>
|
||||
<p><i>"To opt-out of having future third-party marketing communications sent to you, you will be required to unsubscribe with the applicable third party providers. Despite your request to no longer receive future newsletters or promotional and marketing communications from us, we reserve the right to continue to send you notices of any updates to the Browser, our Software End User License Agreement, and our Privacy Policy."</i><sup><a href="#1">[1]</a></sup></p>
|
||||
<p>WebDiscover also claims that anyone who acts in a way that "damages the reputation" of their company will have all of the personal information that WebDiscover has collected about them disclosed to any party at their discretion.</p>
|
||||
<p><i>"If we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have engaged in conduct which might be considered, unlawful, fraudulent, or which might harm or damage the reputation or standing of WebDiscover Media with either the general public or with a business partner or potential business partner of WebDiscover Media, we reserve the right to release your Personal Information to such persons or third parties as we consider necessary in order to prevent you from causing injury to, or otherwise injuring or interfering, now or in the future, with WebDiscover Media' rights, property or operations or otherwise the rights, property or operations of anyone else who could be harmed by such conduct."</i><sup><a href="#1">[1]</a></sup></p>
|
||||
<p>Which is basically threatening their users that they will use the information they collect to dox anyone who says bad things about their software. This is possibly the most anti-user statement that I have read in a privacy policy.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Phoning Home</h3>
|
||||
<p>When WebDiscover is started, it will begin making requests to <code>ec2-54-191-159-75.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com</code></p>
|
||||
<p>This is presumably how it collects a lot of the personal information about its users. This was discovered using Microsoft Network Monitor 3.4.</p>
