Proton Browser
Proton Browser
I would Like to see a Browser like chrome, firefox, or Brave. But without the tracking and also it being based in the same location as protonmail would mean its secure and safe to use.
With companys like google buying up all the alternative browsers I think this a needed program/app. What good is the secure email when Chrome is snap shoting and keylogging your protonmail logins.

Chrome is not the only browser. There's no need for a ProtonBrowser.

I think a browser would be great like Comodo dragon did with there browsers.

Firefox with some privacy oriented extensions and Torbrowser are good choices. There really isn't needed for yet another browser.

There are enough browsers out there, another one won't help and it will dilute Proton focus.

I think we need it if it will be open source, cause it's difficult to disable and enable torbutton in tor browser, Firefox have some privacy issues like a lot of connections on startup to Mozilla servers (which you can cut off, but it's very hard to do , and Brave also have now privacy issues. So, good blank privacy browser with open source code will be great fresh idea. +1.

No need for this. Users can use Tor and go to the Proton Onion site instead.

Firefox is open source and overall a great browser. If Proton DID develop a relatively simliar browser, however, I would use it and even buy it if it was charged. Still, Firefox is hardly equivalent to Chrome.

-1 vote. Firefox, Brave, Tor work great.
To detected and block trackers use Privacy Badger by EFF. -

I also use the free Epic privacy browser. I would prefer that ProtonMail add other features like a calendar instead of creating a browser that already exists. Maybe they could partner up together, though?

I agree. I use Epic browser for Mac with built-in VPN and proxy. It never keeps a history so it's invisible inside and out. I use Opera for normal business matters because Epic is too invisible it doesn't quite work with everything.
I agree with some of the comments, that another well-built, trustworthy browser in the mix would be good.
I agree with others who worry that the Proton engineers might be overtaxed. -

Yes,I am totally agree with the idea of a strong " Proton Browser" . Please,more encryption, more security features and more servers of Protonvpn.

Independent and new web browsers are a good idea. Not even to do with tracking but to do with where you are directed too. Google, Firefox etc. determine what pages you get to see, what's at the top of the list, or if they feel a source is untrustworthy they have stated they will not publish it. Who gets determine such things they do. The reason why I use proton mail is because I don't trust big brother, and I don't trust the big search engines. An alternative non-tracking search engine is a goo idea.

I use firefox with Duck Duck Go for searching because of the less tracking. something like that or better would be great.

This is a bad idea, browsers have to be maintained the team would have no time to work on email features if they have to maintain a browser. There are already a ton of alternatives.

I'm with the last guy but I think a free secure European vpn service is also needed.
Using combinations like duckduckgo combined with firefox along with the free ghost vpn service is a little bit annoying to try to get what you want from one.
If protonamail could combine these services so everything was under one roof that would be great.
Thanks to protonmail in any case for the services they already provide.

I second FF and https://www.privacytools.io
Honestly don't waste time on this, for me it's all about allowing users to re-key and add exporting to their existing private keys moving them from 2048 to 4096. With that change and PM Bridge continuing to keep up with their Unix integration it will be a good 2018.

I don't get this one. We already have brave which is the no-tracking browser, why duplicate the efforts?

Duck Duck Go doesn't track.

Yes, it would be nice to browse with Proton... and a free VPN is a must. Non-proprietary operating systems are also important, in my opinion. I'm sure all these are welcome technical challenges / pastimes for the guys at CERN and MIT : am I wrong? Also, Proton is already charging for some services, right?
