Mullvad Browser

Mullvad Browser is the result of a collaboration between Mullvad VPN and the Tor Project. The idea is powerful: take Tor Browser's industry-leading anti-fingerprinting protections and package them for VPN use rather than onion routing. With resistFingerprinting enabled, spoofed fonts and timezones, letterboxing to normalize window dimensions, and canvas/WebGL blocking, every Mullvad Browser user looks identical to websites.

Unlike Tor Browser, traffic is not routed through the Tor network, so you get much better speed. Instead, it's designed to be paired with Mullvad VPN (or any VPN) for IP privacy. DNS queries go through Mullvad DNS-over-HTTPS by default with no fallback. Telemetry is removed at compile time, and the browser runs in permanent private mode—no history, no cookies between sessions.

The trade-off is deliberate inconvenience. Mullvad Browser ships with uBlock Origin and NoScript pre-installed and actively discourages adding more extensions, since any change makes your fingerprint unique. There's no sync, no password manager, no bookmarks persistence. It's not a daily driver for most people, but for privacy-critical sessions it's one of the strongest options available. It is desktop-only — Linux, macOS and Windows — with no mobile build.
