However, I would rather see these type of features built in to browsers like Firefox because of its already growing popularity. Something more like a "ghost" mode or what have you that allows you to lock down your browser's ability to transmit data. Either way, I can see this new browser as beneficial when dealing with schools/children by protecting their information.

I like the concept of being able to take the software browser with you on a usb device - carrying around your secure browser for when you're traveling or on public wi-fi.
or you could just browser the internest smarter and stop giving your information. its not a browser issue its a user issue. if you go to websites that phish, or spam or whatever, its your own fault.. just stay clear and use common sense.
