Our goal with the Chromium provided in CalyxOS has been to provide a browser with a solid base of privacy and security enhancements vs Chromium (and by extension, vs Chrome) while still allowing most sites and WebView-based apps to function as expected out of the box. We do this by using select changes from Cromite (and prior to that, Bromite). Some of these include the under-the-hood deactivation of intrusive features and analytics, while others provide additional site settings to adjust features like WebGL and WebRTC, features which are sometimes necessary but which can aid in fingerprinting or identification when turned on. We also bring in the legacy ad blocker from Bromite/Cromite to offer some reasonable protection from the worst kinds of ads. You can find and adjust these features in Settings.

Project mention: Does enabling a ton of filter lists put more strain on RAM or CPU, and is it meaningful or negligible? | /r/uBlockOrigin | 2023-06-21I asked because our team (NGO "Social Innovators", Kyiv, Ukraine) is maintaining Ukrainian Malicious URL Blocklist — blocklist of phishing web resources that are targeted at citizens of Ukraine (these phishing web resources are not available in other filters): https://github.com/braveinnovators/url-blocklist Currently, the number of fraudulent campaigns targeting citizens of Ukraine is increasing exponentially, so every day we have to add new phishing resources to the filter.
