==Advantages==
−
Iron Avoids creating a unique ID for its users, does not report activity history to its publisher (or anyone else), includes a built-in [[ad-blocker]], and more.  However, the Chromium engine is still sound, so for people who find Chromium or [[Google Chrome]] to be right for them, Iron is a good alternative.<br />
