NSS Labs recently conducted a browser test of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge. The researchers found that Edge — the default browser for Windows 10 — was more secure than the other two in terms of blocking socially engineered malware (SEM) and phishing attacks.

Testing was conducted during the months of September and October 2016, with 220,918 socially engineered malware results and 78,921 phishing results recorded.

But is it more secure than GNU/GNU GNU/Icecat? Or as I've taken to calling it, (GNU - GNU + 1) GNU/Icecat.

>gnu - gnu + 1

Or just 1.

I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're referring to as 1, is in fact, GNU/GNU, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU minus GNU plus 1.

>GNU IceCat, formerly known as GNU IceWeasel,[3] is a free software rebranding of the Mozilla Firefox web browser distributed by the GNU Project.

That means no

wow it's fucking nothing, unless your're a hyper-normie

>>57377745

99.999999% of computer users are normies

That's concern me if I were a retarded who didn't know how to avoid shit like that by heart

RIP CHROME

So basically it lets retards know that the ransomware claiming the OS is locked is lying and that calling pajeets and giving them access to their computer is a bad idea?

>>57377449

Edge implements a System Call Filter for every content process so that if malware does exploit a vulnerability it going to have a much harder time escaping its sandbox since it can only call the Win32 APIs that Edge needs to function.

Its why that zero day that Google recently disclosed does not affect Edge users running the Anniversary Update.

Oh great, so it affects 99% of Windows 10 users.
>>
>>57380411

Aren't we forgetting Chrome also mitigates the exploit?

>socially engineered malware (SEM) and phishing attacks
Are you fucking serious

>>57380417
So what the fuck is OP talking about then?

Meanwhile for stuff that matters Edge and IE are still the worst:

How does MS make a browser "from scratch" and still produce an IE-tier turd?
>>
BASED EDGE
>>
>>57377449
Anyone who falls for socially engineered malware or phishing attacks fucking deserves it
>>
CHROME BTFO

>>57377449
The fuck is "social engineered malware"?
