icecat

GNU IceCat is the GNU version of the Firefox ESR browser. Extensions included to this version of IceCat: * LibreJS GNU LibreJS aims to address the JavaScript problem described in the article "The JavaScript Trap" of Richard Stallman. * HTTPS Everywhere HTTPS Everywhere is an extension that encrypts your communications with many major websites, making your browsing more secure. * ViewTube Watch videos from video sharing websites with extra options. * A set of companion extensions for LibreJS by Nathan Nichols are pre-installed, and provide workarounds to use some services at USPS, RSF.org, SumOfUs.org, pay.gov, McDonalds, goteo.org and Google Docs without using nonfree JavaScript. * A series of configuration changes and tweaks were applied to ensure that IceCat does not initiate network connections that the user has not explicitly requested. This implies not downloading feeds, updates, blacklists or any other similar data needed during startup.
