Two Most Important Browser Extensions
Everyone loves surfing in internet and it is not a bad thing. The other thing is that everyone also needs to know how to be secure on the internet. Secure yourselves from dangerous websites and also from trackers that follow your online activities.
Here is two most important browser extensions and they are available for FireFox, Chrome, and other browser that based on them such as Waterfront, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi, etc.
HTTPS Everywhere
This extension will allow you to access the HTTPS version of anywebsite you visit. Okay, why HTTPS matters?
The ‘S’ in HTTPS stands for security. In simpler word, if you access a site in HTTP without ‘S’ there are risks for surviliance. You can read more Why HTTPS Matter.
Ublock Origin
This is a very famous adblocker especially for the FLOSS enthusiast like me. Easy to install and low memory-consuming. Not just an adblocker, it also blocks big companies’ trackers such as Facebook, Google, Alexa, Mail.ru, etc.
If you want to support the website you visit by viewing the ads, you can just simply turn off this extension.

My final words
I personally prefer browsing with desktop browser rather than on mobile. I think, the mobile browsers are still far behind comparing to desktop. Just see the two cool extensions. Are they available on Mobile? They are available for Firefox mobile but other beautiful extensions such as Tampermonkey and VK Blues are not in mobile.
That’s why I buy a Chromebook; just to browsing in desktop way without worrying the batteries.
