    the Freedom of the Press Foundation’s Holmes suggests users try the private browsing feature in the Brave browser, which uses a stripped-down version of Tor’s anonymous routing by default.

    Better alternatives than this? I use a VPN but not Tor at the moment

      If you’re gonna get another browser, why not cut out the middleman and just use TOR Browser directly?

      I don’t think there is a middle ground between a VPN and Tor.

      As much as I don’t like Brave this seems like a good feature. There do seem to be some problems with it leaking in some circumstances though.

      For the curious, Brave page about private windows with Tor Here
