The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.
On Linux you have to launch every app that is supposed to be excluded from using the VPN tunnel as "mullvad-exclude " or from the GUI split tunneling menu (every time!). If you only want the browser to use the tunnel that would be quite annoying.
I wonder how long it's gonna be before the Mullvad founders have a "roundtable discussion about combatting antisemitism on the internet" with Jonathan Greenblatt
They''ll go thru "gamers are toxic" then "won't someone think of the children" then "the patriarchy is oppressing the wamens" to "everyone hates the rainbows" rinse and repeat.
guys have you tried being a bit more optimistic? It's literally a browser, the market is full of them. If it doesn't work nobody loses anything because you can simply not switch. If it does however then there's something to be gained by everyone. I really don't see the point of being outraged/concerned for something that hasn't even happened yet

Personally, I like the concept of Mullvad Browser and like the idea of a Brave competitor, but want to see it get more time in the oven. As it stands right now, it's inferior to both Brave and LibreWolf, but has the potential to be better than both in every way. I just hope they don't make themselves into a niche browser but rather become something that can be used by anybody. Personally, I separate my browsers in three tiers: privacy respecting but very usable (Brave), less usable but even more private (Arkenfox/LibreWolf, currently Mullvad seems to be trying to get in here) and finally Tor/Whonix.
Mullvad browser is to Firefox like Brave is to Chromium. Both fill the niche of maximum privacy while still being user-friendly, but are based on entirely different browsers.
both are pretty much equivalent except a few settings like advanced fingerprint blocking and automatic addon updates, but LibreWolf is just less of a pain in the rear end to set up
yep, been having trouble with connections, specifically the connection it takes a long time to find a stable server to connect to I have to manually change server to try find a good one.
Ever since I've heard of this bill, I've been strongly considering building a portable cyberdeck. If the bill passes I would definitely not trust a VPN alone to keep me hidden. I could easily take the cyberdeck across town and do whatever I need over there and then come back home.
I know, I know just because you’re not doing anything bad doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take your privacy seriously but damn shawty what the hell you doing on the internet that you have to go across town? That just seems a bit excessive imhsapo
Inside of the Mullvad app, under split tunneling in settings, you can choose to open programs that will bypass the VPN tunnel. Is this not the functionality that you were looking for?
The Internet and eventually the world would be a better place if the govt got interested to initiate teaching non-tech people basics of the internet privacy and security but instead of that They find it easy to put restrictions on us.These are just violation of human rights in a different form.
Why would the government do that? The government wants to control and enslave people, the government doesn't want to help people. The government is not your friend or ally.
I think to really have true security and privacy, we'd need to have an entirely new internet with a new standard. Just as a point of contention, I think the browser shouldn't report the height of the canvas or screen, and the width should be adjusted to account for a standard defined scroll bar so that everyone who has the same resolution but changes the scroll bar width would be reported as the same width.
Safari (and hence the new browser Orion)’s anti fingerprinting is very effective, and is based on never running the fingerprinting JavaScript in the first place. Add an anti tracker block list such as those included with iVPN or Mullvad - or an add on like ublock origin - and you’re good to go in most cases.
at min 1:43 before some special topic starts the video stops and the loading icon appears. its only possible to watch the rest of the video if that special part is skipped. Anyone else noticing this?
I think this will enlarge the target on Mullvad's back even more, especially if it becomes widespread. The glowies are surely not going to leave Mullvad alone forever.
Well know when Mullvad is compromised when they stop accepting anonymous cryptocurrency like Monero as payment and force you to make an account, which they don’t at the moment. No accounts = no way to track subscribers.
You want Mullvad browser only traffic to go through the Mullvad VPN while allowing other network traffic to bypass the VPN? I don't think that sort of setup would even meet the definition of a VPN, which is an OSI Layer 3 protocol, so pretty much all traffic on the network stack needs to be routed through it (with the exception of Layer 2 Link Local stuff, which is strictly local network). To differentiate by application, you need to focus on Layer 7, that's really high up. I don't think you can do this without full virtualisation (basically running two machines with separate stacks on one hardware layer). A proxy can be more selective (port 80/8080/443 traffic) but that is not a VPN.
Add a second virtual network adapter, that can be used for the VPN, and than say the browser, to use that one. And/or link that to a local proxy, which the browser can use.
I'm not kidding 20 minutes before I saw this video I thought to myself I should really figure out what the best VPN service is by asking on the LTT forum. This isn't the first time an occurance has happened like this for me with your videos.
I am not impressed. Lots of people thought randomly of a close relative the day before they died without knowing about it. You just have a really high probability of thinking something that Outlaw will make a video about soon since you follow the latest cyber security news. It is really cool that your questions get answered quickly tho
I think what you mentioned about the whole computer connecting to the VPN service *does* sound pretty bad. I mean, wouldn't that mean that if someone wanted to have two browsers open at once (for whatever reason), if they tried signing into like Gmail or something on one, it could be linked easier with activity on Mullvad Browser? I am not the most technically-minded, but this sounds like a security flaw.
Firefox is actually more private and secure than Librewolf, even according to your chart. Librewolf also lags behind Firefox updates (its upstream) which makes it very insecure as you're basically running an outdated Firefox. That could make something like 0-days even worse than they already are. Is it worth taking that risk just to have some feature enabled by default (which can be enabled anyways in Firefox)? I don't think so.
Well, if you really want to segment your traffic you can built an anon vm and use that for your privacy/hackerman stuff, and a different vm bound to a different interface for your surface web stuff. At that point you might as well just use qubes os though imo.
I still don't understand how letterboxing helps. Whether you use a small or large screen, it's still going to resize to something slightly smaller but still close to your display's resolution. Now on top of being able to tell apart Tor/mullvad users with different resolutions, you can also tell apart those who use a standard browser form those who don't. It makes tracking worse. At least if it changed randomly for every site and session it would be a bit better
Sick vid dude. I've been loving Mullvad for a couple of years now and this project looks like it could actually become popular to a degree. Maybe in the Year of the Linux Desktop????????? I wish you'd mentioned whether it was based on Chromium or FF. I haven't looked it up yet but the UI looks like FF which gave me hope. The fact that no real alternative browser has deviated from Chromium and helping break up the browser hegemony.
To be honest, I think I'll be giving Mullvad some time before considering switching over from Brave (which yeah, I know also has some issues) because it's still a new thing, as well as because to this day, I still prefer chromium to firefox.
2:30 I have seen these specifically on a tech podcast a lot... which is uuuh an interesting place. Always talking about an invest and sometimes even having a conversation with other bots so seem more real... obviously with some real commenter mixed in there
I do not understand how spoofing screen size helps being harder to fingerprint. Most screens have standard size. Leting them know I have 1920x1080 sounds much safer to me than having some random or weird size.
Flatpaks, as great as they are, aren't made for system-level stuff like this. But as the steam deck runs on KDE Plasma, you can just add a wire WireGuard connection in the network settings.
i tried it, it's pretty lean and clean. but it is really slow tbh. thorium (avx2 flag enabled) is around 2-3 times faster on inital (uncached) load of same websites. still looking for that "privacy + speed + minimalism + (optional vpn/tor)" all in one package...
The whole screen size thing has baffled for quite a while, why not just let people resize the page after it has already loaded? If the website is designed properly it should scale appropriately. So like rather than the website scaling the website to fit your browser, the browser scales the website after receiving the website contents.
At least on my setup, I configured Linux to just route specific connections through mullvad. It's not that hard. But... this is not application based, but connection based. Like, certain net masks.
enjoy it while it lasts.... once mullvad starts experiencing more and more fame it'll go to shit, as they all do. i was surprised when you mentioned mullvad having an organization behind it as a plus... hell no! the reason projects like librewolf will last is because they are run by the community, it's impossible for the community to get money hungry and greedy. seriously, every "privacy driven" project with a company behind it ends up turning to shit, firefox, duckduckgo, even distros, like ubuntu. it happens to them all... it will continue to happen to them all D:
A lot of VPNs have it so you can use just your browser with the vpn through the client, Mullvad's split tunneling technically allows it to but its unrealistic to do so.
I wish there was a service that routed tor's exit node traffic through a clear web friendly ip. obviously it needs some kind of user verification to prevent bot abuse. or maybe it should just block login pages if that's possible because what's the point of using tor if you're signing into something on the clear web?
the browser comparison chart is misleading because many of the features just aren’t enabled by default. you can adjust easily in about:config or about:flags
Speaking of Mullvad, would you be willing to make a video showing how to enable Mullvad VPN on Steam OS? I'm a long time Mullvad VPN user but I can't seem to figure out how to enable it on my Steam Deck. I saw one guide online saying that I needed to use their Open VPN config files and set them up in KDE's network settings but I find that kind of restrictive and complicaed. Thanks mate.
But using Chrome in general is unwise due to it having proprietary code. Also it is owned by an advertising company, so I wouldn't be surprised if they track you no matter what.
Discord lets you create an account with an email address from Tor-provided address while using Tor. And caring for user "safety" can look through any message out of the blue.
Hey Kenny, You stated that Mullvad Browser is made in association with Tor Project, or Tor Browser. Since Tor Browser is made on Gecko, so is Mullvad Browser, and Gecko is the architecture of Mozilla Firefox. So, Mullvad Browser is literally a yet another Firefox Browser.

If not by current owners than the next ones at some point.Those jobs are just a power seat and one day that seat will be sat in by a corrupt person.
What do you mean with FireFox???
Decentralization is the key. The more decentralized, the better.
6:59 is there a way to achieve this without the annoying box
As of june 2024 Mullvad now ticks almost all of the boxes, it's only missing 6. Or rather it's only failed 6, some features it still does not have.
A lot of VPNs have it so you can use just your browser with the vpn through the client, Mullvad's split tunneling technically allows it to but its unrealistic to do so.
I wish there was a service that routed tor's exit node traffic through a clear web friendly ip. obviously it needs some kind of user verification to prevent bot abuse. or maybe it should just block login pages if that's possible because what's the point of using tor if you're signing into something on the clear web?
the browser comparison chart is misleading because many of the features just aren’t enabled by default. you can adjust easily in about:config or about:flags
How does the core browser product make $$$ & be financially sustainable as a business?
Speaking of Mullvad, would you be willing to make a video showing how to enable Mullvad VPN on Steam OS? I'm a long time Mullvad VPN user but I can't seem to figure out how to enable it on my Steam Deck. I saw one guide online saying that I needed to use their Open VPN config files and set them up in KDE's network settings but I find that kind of restrictive and complicaed. Thanks mate.
I fucking love this mole, my favourite mascot
Closed source, open source or partially open source ?
Eh librewolf and Tor is enough. I don't see how putting a VPN company in between my website and myself can benefit in any way other than geoblocking
Tor speed is 100x less fast than VPN.
Why dont you run the browser in a VM?
Then only the browser VM would go through the VPN.
10:30 That was my first thought after downloading. That is something that should absolutely be included.
damn looks useful, is the browser paid?
Mullvad and Librewolf just won't work on my Windows 11 machine! Just wondering why?
I was gonna say doesn’t Nord have a split tunnel where you can pipe a single app through the VPN and the rest remains on your private subnet?
Mullem Vadem and Tor Sheisty linked up! Need it or keep it?
It's a good day to be a Mullvad user
6:59 fun fact, in chrome there is a setting to stop websites from seeing this stuff, its just hard to find
But using Chrome in general is unwise due to it having proprietary code. Also it is owned by an advertising company, so I wouldn't be surprised if they track you no matter what.
You use windows?
the crossover we didn't know we needed
are you making a video about the Rust policy change?
It may be possible to only route the browser traffic through the VPN with Linux Network Namespaces, isolating both apps in one dedicated namespace
kenny using windows?
Discord lets you create an account with an email address from Tor-provided address while using Tor. And caring for user "safety" can look through any message out of the blue.
For how new it is, its really good
Hey Kenny,
You stated that Mullvad Browser is made in association with Tor Project, or Tor Browser. Since Tor Browser is made on Gecko, so is Mullvad Browser, and Gecko is the architecture of Mozilla Firefox. So, Mullvad Browser is literally a yet another Firefox Browser. Hope this information is convincing.

when is the Based Browser coming?
Wouldn’t you have to trust mullvads endpoints?
Only partly, your websites should be encrypted, so they know "only" your IP, and the IP address of the target
@@schwingedeshaehers so they know what sites you visit
@@amir3515 Maybe, but not sure. There can be more than one site at a IP. But yes, often they can get the domain (but not the thing behind the slash)
