Since the Big Sur version of Safari is available now as Safari Technology Preview I nave been using it as my day-to-day browser and so far I like it and it is performing quite well. One new feature is an icon on the toolbar that shows the privacy report, a listing of the tracking cookies encountered on the current web page. It is informative and can be a bit scary. In spite of the fact, I have all kinds of blockers at the DNS, router, system, and browser level, I browsed a site this morning that is hosted on Facebook and Safari Technology Preview detected no fewer than 14 trackers associated with that one site. No wonder my wife get upset when she mentions something in a Facebook post only to be almost immediately overwhelmed with ads, email, and even text messages touting similar products.
