GNU IceCat Description

GNUzilla is the GNU Mozilla suite version, and GNU IceCat the GNU Firefox browser version. It is completely free software, which is its main advantage. Although the Mozilla project's Firefox source code is free software, they recommend and distribute non-free software such as add-ons and plug-ins. Their trademark license also imposes restrictions on the distribution of modified versions, making it difficult to exercise freedom. Extension that encrypts your communications to many major websites, making browsing safer. Adblock Plus blocks privacy trackers in normal browsing mode and all third-party requests in private browsing mode. A custom "about:icecat homepage is added with links to information about IceCat's privacy features and free software. There are also checkboxes that allow you to disable or enable the more likely to break websites.
