A handful of companies monopolise the web, with unprecedented access to our data. But there are many more ethical – and often distinctively European – alternatives

      Huh, I was just writing that I wished Firefox would do this, so thanks! I’ll check it out. Much appreciated.

      EDITED to add: unfortunately it’s not for me. I tried it out in automatic mode (recommended) and while it worked perfectly, as soon as I enabled it my browser started to get unstable, pages would lock, mouse pointer would disappear, etc. And then as soon as I disabled the extension all went back to normal. So it’s a no-go for now. But thanks for letting us know it’s there.

      Yup, and it is working quite well.

      I’m happily using it; just a tad annoying to remember to open certain links in specific containers or else you are blocked from their firewall.
