Sophos Which browser do you trust the most?

For the past three years, security company Sophos has been asking readers of their website to answer the question: "Which program do you trust?"

Every October the company publishes the results of the poll. The winner of the 2015 poll (as well as the previous two years) is Firefox with a percentage of 41% from 3928 votes.Sophos trustworthy-browser-2015

According to Sophos second in the list is Google Chrome with 21%. Followed by Opera with 16%, and Safari with 8%, reproducing the results of the previous year's poll.

Other programs ς που υπάρχουν στα αποτελέσματα, αλλά με πολύ μικρά ποσοστά περιλαμβάνουν το Tor με 6%, τον Explorer with 3%, and Microsoft Edge, both with 2%.

Περίεργο πάντως είναι το γεγονός ότι ο Tor, το πρόγραμμα περιήγησης που έγινε διάσημο από τον Edward Snowden, είναι από τα τελευταία στις προusers.

Please note that the poll is by no means indicative of how popular the browsers and the Trust Gap in the table below shows that many users have visited the poll with a browser and voted another.

Sophos Browser Trust Gap

As you can see, Chrome, the browser most widely used in the world, according to all browser usage statistics, has not yet conquered its users' hearts.

According to the data, Chrome has a gap of -19,6% (meaning browser confidence), meaning that of the 40.78% of the users who voted in the poll using Chrome, 19,6% of them voted another browser.

Perhaps we expected this more from Internet Explorer users, and less from Chrome. The simplest explanation is the fact that Chrome is developed by Google, a company that doesn't really trust the public.
