Hi
it would be great to have a secure mode, 
like "invisible" on the network, no cookies, 
no history, encrypted, with a VPN,
to take the security on the higher level. 
For browsing without adds, safe shopping, 
banking, no hackers, or scammers,...
I know that no filter is 100% accurate and the hackers will always find the way,
but just to protect the entire content of the phone, we're practically using the smartphones as our main "computer". 
For the banking, social media, videos, films, games, music, shopping,...

At the correct price almost anything is possible. I remember when Facebook stated that they'll never sell ads. If you're on social media and you also have a smartphone you'll always get spam, ads etc....unless you pay the correct people the cost.

Samsung could increase their Internet privacy but they also need to finance the staffs and the company. Maybe a paid version?

You'll also want to turn off all 'smart' features of a phone as these play a part in what you see advertised.

They say that phones don't listen but they have to listen in order for 'ok google' or 'hey siri' to work... hence what your asking for is a 1980's phone & remove all network connectivity etc. as that only true way to get anonymity.

I'll take my tin foil hat off now as I accept we'll never truly have anonymity now or in the future.

I got your point.
But the phones should have an algorithm to filter,
what is necessary for the smart features,
and what they can scrap,
or to pretend,
it doesn't exist.
Google, Bixby, Alexa,
or the other assistants don't need all the heard information all the time.
They should have to use the minimum of the information crucially necessary for that task, nothing more and nothing less.

Yes, in Opera, Firefox,
and I'm sure somewhere else too.
But it doesn't work correctly.
I understand that no filter in 100% accurate.
Just it should be better.
With the AI,
and the power of these phones, which are more powerful than a computer, which sent a man to the Moon.

You have some good points, but Samsung won't implement this.

Maybe you can install a different android version that's more secure onto your phone

I'm thinking of the whole new customers for Samsung.
A lot of users of Samsung Galaxy S Series are managers,
or important people,
who always appreciate the privacy.
Of course,
you can use a solution of the third party,
but to have a secure phone would be a great benefit.
BlackBerry was once a company with a great,
very high level of privacy.
