Vision Document: bobzilla

Ultimate Goal

bobzilla aims to be the browser that doesn't suck. It combines the privacy DNA of Firefox, the performance competitiveness of Chromium/V8, proper Widevine L1 DRM support for 4K streaming, zero surveillance out-of-the-box, and a sandboxed MicroVM virtualization engine for native legacy and Java application payloads.

Core Philosophy

  1. Privacy by default: No opt-out telemetry, sponsored stories, or hidden network pings. Disabled natively at the C++ and Gecko engine levels.
  2. Performance matters: Focus on SpiderMonkey optimization, jemalloc aggressive memory reclamation, and demand-paged disk streaming via HTTP Range Requests.
  3. DRM pragmatism: Widevine L1 hardware spoofing supported to ensure uncompromised 4K media consumption on streaming providers.
  4. Ad Blocking Superiority: Manifest V2 preserved indefinitely for uBlock Origin superiority, augmented by native engine-level network blocking.
  5. Unified Mission Control: Single consolidated settings dashboard directly in browser preferences (about:preferences#privacy) categorized by high-value capabilities.
  6. Isolated Payload Sandboxing: The JavaSandbox architecture isolates web-delivered Java applications within stateless Firecracker MicroVM containers backed by FUSE streaming.
