Before anyone boycotts Firefox as their browser those who are of the conservative mindset and ideology need to build a browser for conservatives.
Surely there are people out there who know the ins and outs of technology that can build a web browser for conservatives.
Give conservatives a alternative to Firefox.
Sorry, I do not even feel good or safe about going to Microsoft Internet Explorer, or Safari, Google Chrome.
All of them track you.... all of them.
Perhaps ? this is a ploy to get conservatives to drop Firefox and go to a browser to track them ?
Come on Conservatives with the know how ? build us a new web browser for conservatives that is even safer than Firefox.

Well that's why they are free. In exchange for a free browser, you give up some of your privacy so that the owner of the browser can determine your demographic and sell that data to advertisers so they can target ads at you.

This is why browsers are free.

I suppose an entrepreneur can come out with a browser that does not track you and charge $9.95 a month for the privilege. However, I do not think that would be successful. Everybody has come to expect that browsers are free.

I don’t know the political leaning (libertarian, maybe), but one of the most secure browsers is Tor browser. Nothing gets tracked. It even makes it look like you are browsing from a different location than where you actually are. I’ve received messages from Google and FB when using it and logging in because I didn’t appear to be in my “usual” locations.
