General Discussion • Re: "safe" way to use sites w/o the usual blocking?

I am being pressured into using web sites that I don't trust. ... My biggest concern is online banking

If you don't trust your bank, maybe you should change it. I would be (I am) more concerned about browsers (and browser providers) I do not trust.

For the bank my only concern is that my credentials stored on my computer could be stolen, and my solution is (1) not to have the browser remember them; (2) use a private window to access the bank site. Other concerns are for credit card numbers when buying something online, and my solution is to use one-time virtual card numbers (offered by my bank).

All other concerns about stored password, or tracking, are of a lesser order, privacy concerns, could be a nuisance but not a damage. I do not keep an history beyond 2 days, I delete cookies at browser exit, or even earlier (when closing a tab, using cookies exterminator)
