Wow, I’m pleasantly surprised. They’re actually serious about their commitment to privacy; their website¹ amazingly doesn’t contain any third-party trackers!

I'm curious why they make a call to fonts.googleapis.com for Arial, sans-serif though....I was also pleasantly surprised to see uBlock didn't block anything from their site.

For those curious: PureOS is a Debian fork. PureBrowser is an Iceweasel fork which itself is a Firefox fork. [0] Assuming this is the official repo, there are some concerns of mine that security updates are out of date.

>PureBrowser takes Debian's Iceweasel and includes a number of the changes made for GNU's IceCat, along with some extensions that we like - privacybadger, ublock, https-everywhere, html5-video-everywhere, and decentraleyes.

>DuckDuckGo's search page is the default, as well as the homepage.


I see Google Fonts, which I'd consider a tracking tool.
