Aviator, based on the open source browser core Chromium as used by Google Chrome, Security developers have released a stripped-down privacy-friendly browser.
Aviator always operates in private mode. Also, each tab is sandboxed to prevent cross infections. The default search engine for the new browser is DuckDuckGo, the privacy-friendly web search tool.
Director of product management, Robert Hansen, says:
""Not a single browser vendor offers ad blocking, instead relying on optional third-party plugins, because this breaks their business model and how they make money. Current incentives between the user and browser vendor are misaligned. People simply aren’t safe online when their browser vendor profits from ads.”
"WhiteHat Security has no interest or stake in the online advertising industry, so we can offer a browser free of ulterior motives. What you see is what you get. We aren’t interested in tracking you or your browsing history, or in letting anyone else have that information either.
Aciator is only available for Mac OS X and can be downloaded [url=Flash and Java are click-to-play. The Aviator browser has built-in functionality designed to block ads and tracking by default. All this greatly reduces the risk of drive-by downloads.
