Thanks Paul for clarifying the strangeness of this Globus VPN Browser.
There are enough red flags that I'm not going to try it, even though I
generally have tried almost every free public VPN solution known to
mankind.
This one really isn't "just" an integrated "privacy browser", so, let me
close this thread by summarizing that the following "related" privacy
browsing situations seem to be the short list.
1. Epic & Opera are integrated-proxy/vpn privacy browsers.
2. Tor is something completely different (but with "proxy" overlap)
3. Privacy browser is a catch-all phrase of something different still
4. Attaching a VPN to a Browser is different still
5. And, just using a browser with any VPN is even different still.
6. And using any browser with any web proxy is different still.
I don't know what the names for all those things are, but here's a summary:
1. Integrated vpn browsers
2. Tor browsers
3. Privacy browsing mode
4. VPN
5. VPN-attached browsers
6. Proxies
This thread is only seeking a better integrated-vpn privacy browser.
It seems that Globus just isn't gonna make the short list.
Thanks for saving everyone else the time since they can learn from our
efforts, which is the whole point of any Q&A thread on Usenet.
