Aekant vs Google Chrome

Chrome is made by the world’s biggest advertising company. Aekant is made to stop the tracking that pays for it: ads and trackers gone from the moment you install, a new fingerprint on every page, and every identity in its own container — on an engine Google doesn’t control.

Why Chrome users switch

  • Ads and trackers are blocked out of the box — no extension needed — with your own custom filter rules on top

  • Cross-site cookies blocked by default, not only in Incognito
  • Several identities side by side in one window, each with its own route and search engine
  • Built on Gecko, so your browsing doesn’t depend on Google’s Chromium

About the Chrome column.

Chrome is the world’s most used browser. It keeps people apart with separate profiles, each opened in its own window, and relies on extensions for ad and tracker blocking. The Chrome column above is based on these vendor sources.
