One such security solution is the privacy browser called Ghostery. The free browser extension is available on both desktop and mobile. Launched in 2009, the service now has over seven million monthly users. German browser company Cliqz owns Ghostery since 2017.
Being acquired by Cliqz made the situation better for Ghostery, as was evident from the launch of Ghostery 8, the latest version of the desktop browser. The company is now bringing the same features for mobile users.

In June 2018, Brave released a pay-to-surf test-version of the browser. This version of Brave came preloaded with approximately 250 ads and sent a detailed log of the user's browsing activity to Brave for the short-term purpose of testing this functionality. Brave announced that expanded trials would follow.[9] Later that month, Brave added support for Tor in its desktop browser's private-browsing mode.[10]
The Android Ghostery browser has been available for years on desktop systems but now brings the same peace of mind and tracking functionality to Android mobile devices. Watch the video after the jump to learn more.
While I'm talking about the iPhone here because that's what I have, it's possible to pull the same trick for Android devices or desktop web browsing. It's a little convoluted but straightforward enough for anyone to do. First, go to the Wordle game at The New York Times using the Safari browser on your iPhone. Once there, hit 'share' and look for the options link at the top of the screen that appears. Click on this and then make sure you tick the 'Web Archive' selection before the 'Save to Files' action. Once you've saved it to a folder of your choice, you will have a copy of all needed to play Wordle offline, locally, on your device.
Oh, and if you want to know how to do the same on an Android smartphone or by way of a desktop browser, you can find step-by-step instructions at cnet. And talking of further links, you can read The New York Times privacy FAQ here.

When adding extensions support to our Presto engine back in 2010, a lot of time was spent behind the scenes so as to make our extensions framework very versatile and lightweight. Although the initial release was targeted for desktop only, every aspect of the extensions API was drafted with mobile in mind.
We have also added the option to load unzipped extensions for testing purposes, just like Opera desktop's Developer Mode. This is very handy for development, as it saves you from zipping and installing your extension over and over again. In order to use this, load Opera Mobile on your device or PC, choose the earlier mentioned Install extension menu option and navigate to the config.xml file of your unzipped extension. The extension will then be loaded in developer mode, and its settings page has a handy Reload menu option, which you can click to reload the extension after you've made some changes to the code.
With Start.me, you turn each new tab you open in Chrome into a personal dashboard. You can populate this dashboard with webpage bookmarks, productivity widgets, news feeds from specific websites, and various photos and videos. If you prefer to keep your daily schedule online, rather than in print or on your desktop, you might find this extension useful.
Grammarly is my go-to app for reviewing blog posts for proper spelling, grammar, and word use. You can drop large pieces of text into the desktop application for review, or you can use the handy Chrome extension to call out any grammar errors you're making while typing on the web.
They've got some great custom integrations like using ImageKit with custom domain names, using your own CDN with ImageKit for transformations and optimizations, and dedicated infrastructure setup for enterprise clients. With the ImageKit performance center, you can have automated performance monitoring right on the desktop and mobile devices. You can use coupon code SHOPTALK for $100 in free credits and it starts absolutely free at ImageKit.io.
I think, in 2019, it has to be mobile. I think that also impacts our front-end frameworks like Angular is a very desktop centric framework. React is kind of a desktop centric framework. Vue is kind of a desktop centric framework.
Chris: Yeah. Now, Opera introduces Reborn 3, the first desktop browser with Web 3, which I'm definitely not qualified to talk about. It's got a faster VPN, which is actually a really cool feature, I think, and a built in ad blocker, I guess, which is unique for a desktop browser, isn't it, to have an ad blocker built in.
Chris Enns: This episode is also brought to you by Netlify. We've talked a lot about Netlify build before, the Git workflow for Web development where you can build, deploy, and manage modern Web projects super easily with Netlify. They just launched something new they're calling Netlify Dev, where you can run their entire platform right on your laptop -- or your desktop, I suppose, too. You can preview it all: site generation, functions, and edge logic. Imagine the productivity boost of being able to locally test your site generator, API integrations, serverless functions, and edge rules all in a single development server. That's Netlify Dev, a powerful way to build and test modern Web apps on your local machine. 2ff7e9595c
