It's not truthworthy also not a test, it's a simple list made by someone without specifications how and in which conditions it was made. Eg. Vivaldi fails in the adblock, which is wrong, having an inbuild ad and trackerblocker customizable with blocking lists, with a score between 75% and 100%, depending on the filterlists used. To test a browser privacy you need to use a realtime test with the security and privacy features enabled, with test pages like Browserleaks or Cover your Tracks

What is PrivacyTests.org?

What is PrivacyTests.org?

Most web browsers leak your identity and your browsing history, but some browsers are more leaky than others.

The goal of PrivacyTests.org is to understand in detail: what data is each web browser leaking? Which web browsers offer the best privacy protections?

PrivacyTests.org is an open-source initiative that subjects popular web browsers to a suite of automated tests. These tests are designed to audit web browsers' privacy properties in an unbiased manner. The results of the tests are made public to help users make an informed choice about which browser to use, and to encourage browser makers to fix leaks of private user data.
