       Why do people keep repeating this claim? https://grapheneos.org/usage#web-browsing>We recommend against trying to achieve browser privacy and security through piling on browser extensions and modifications.Without browser extensions (such as uMatrix), you load all the trash from 20 third party domains by default - which can include malicious scripts, cryptominers etc.What kind of a person would recommend browsing a "default" Internet? Only a malicious one.

       @digdeeper There is no uMatrix for Android (not as far as I know that is).

       @digdeeper Presumably, this is to prevent fingerprinting (the more things you have installed, the more unique you are).I'm sure it's more accurate to shoot for something in the middle: a plugin or two to block all the junk, but not so many that you're able to be identified as a unique user.
