Germany's cyber-security agency recommends Firefox as most secure browser
The German Federal Agency for Security in Information Technology (BSI) has tested the most popular browsers to determine which one is most concerned with the privacy and security of users. Firefox 68 (ESR), Chrome 76, Internet Explorer 11 and Edge 44 were tested. Other competitors with significantly lower market shares (Safari, Opera, etc.) did not participate. According to guidelines that BSI presented to the public last month, Firefox performed best.
To make a browser secure, it must support a variety of protocols and services that provide greater security. These are dozens of conditions, such as TLS support, trusted certificates, certificate revocation checks, and more. The competition has not met all, so BSI cannot recommend it. Chrome, IE, and Edge do not support the master password mechanism, do not allow telemetry blocking, and have no organizational transparency. Additionally, Internet Explorer does not support built-in updates, SOPs, CSPs, and SRIs. This makes Firefox the only browser they can recommend.

Might be a trap. Try Brave ;-)
Yeah. Maybe BSI find something other agencies don't know...
Oh, I see. Brave is a browser. https://steemit.com/dlike/@data.plus/brave-hits-eight-million-monthly-users-launches-transparency-page-for-tracking-growth-metrics-cryptoslate
Yes, it is. But had too small market share, below 1% so it's not counted...
I expected it like this already. Yet it's not a logical argument when you ask me. ;-)
