If you don’t want to contribute to the tech giants just getting richer and richer and profiting off of the sale of our data and web activity, then you might be looking towards a safer, alternative browser. After all, Chrome might be one of the most popular browsers across the world, but it isn’t exactly the master protector of its users' data, often tracking everything you search and even your location!
