Basically, “are we getting away with it?” (Whatever ‘it’ is now… whatever the catch is this time… to be fair, I’ve stopped caring. Folks seem want to believe what they want to believe and don’t appreciate it much when you point out even the most glaring issues with their darlings.)
Or they've made a translation system that does not spy on you, but they know that everyone is so used to everything spying on them all the time that they don't know if they've successfully communicated that their system does not, so they try to find that out?
(I love the dark patterns of lumping error reports with “high-level user interaction” data and having them opt-out to begin with. Also love the default / on / off dark pattern. And not to mention that it’s on for private windows without a way in the preferences of turning that off – combined with opt-out high-level user interaction data should be fun.)
Anyway, like I said, I’m sick of debating this. If folks want to believe that a for-profit corporation that exists on 1/2 billion dollars from Google a year is their friend, more power to them. I also have several bridges to sell in Brooklyn, so I do hope they get in touch.
Your post seems overly pessimistic and overtly biased. Mozilla certainly isn't my darling, but I kind of expect dark allusions to nefarious conspiracy to have a bit more meat in the evidence locker.

You don’t need conspiracy theories when you have the simplicity of business models.
