What is xombrero?

xombrero is a web browser designed with security in mind, offering sophisticated controls for scripts and cookies to protect against tracking and scripting attacks. It provides a familiar mouse-based interface as well as a set of vi-like keyboard commands for users who prefer to keep their hands on the keyboard. The default settings of xombrero create a secure environment, and with simple keyboard commands, users can "whitelist" specific sites to allow cookies and scripts from those sites. xombrero is licensed under the ISC license, providing users with a secure and customizable browsing experience
