whitehat aviator browser

Has anyone here tried the Aviator browser? https://www.whitehatsec.com/aviator/

If so, what is your opinions?

I wouldn't touch any browser built on Google's Chrome. Just MHO.

I don't know if this makes sense but it is not Google Chrome.

But it is built on the same open source project (Chromium).

I think I will give it a try.

BTW I currently run Chrome with the ghostery plugin.

Ok, so now I am running aviator.

It looks just like Chrome except that it has a big green sign over on the right that says "protected".

Basically what that means is it isn't writing anything to your drive (cookies, browsing history, etc). So no saving of passwords for websites I think.

It has something called Disconnect built in which I think is kinda like ghostery I guess.

Disconnect is beg ware but is has one button allowance of facebook, twitter and google.

It only blocks one tracker on this page that I can tell but the thing is you cannot uninstall Disconnect in order to install ghostery.

Apparently you can also make Aviator spoof other browsers, so that might be useful.

All in all I think I might be going back to chrome and ghostery.

Ok, back on Chrome and ghostery.

With ghostery block everything and turn off the warning bubble.
