India will launch own indigenous Web Browser

It's built on Chromium, just like Brave, Arc, Chrome, and Edge - that is, basically a wrapper on Chromium. Not sure how to feel about this. Google will likely still collect analytics anyway since they built the core engine & chromium too. Maybe Ulaa took measures to block that, but I wouldn’t be too confident.
It runs on open-source Chromium but isn’t open-source itself, so what it shares and does with your data is entirely up to them. I could be wrong, but a "privacy-focused" browser that isn’t open-source feels kinda fishy.

I don't think it works like that. The analytical part is proprietary and is included with chrome only.

Not sure about that maybe you are right & it might be true, but then again, it still sends device info and cookies. Even if there were an option to block Google from receiving that data, how can we be sure they actually did? There’s UnGoogled Chromium, but Ulaa isn’t open-source, so there’s no way to verify.


(I did read that since they don’t rely on an ad-based model, so they don’t share analytics with Google, but who knows?)

Not that I am trying to say its bad, it's in fact a great initiative but just that privacy thing :sweatsmile: [maybe they might open-source it in future, who knows?]
