Waterfox 6.7.8 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesWaterfox is a free web browser for Mac built from the Firefox code base by BrowserWorks. It keeps the familiar Firefox experience, including support for Firefox add ons, while removing telemetry and data collection that many users would rather switch off. If you like how Firefox works but want a browser that sends less information back to anyone, Waterfox is an easy and comfortable change. It runs on macOS 10.15 or later and feels at home right away for anyone moving from Firefox.
