Please do criticise #Mozilla โ€“ we need an independent, privacy-preserving, feature-rich web browser, not another tracking-infested piece of garbage software.

However, the frequently expressed opinion that โ€œFirefox should be abandoned because Mozilla is the worst bullshit companyโ€ is not helpful. Without #Firefox, all your favourite forks (Tor, LibreWolf, Zenโ€ฆ) would struggle to survive and the Google-Apple complex would fully control the browser market.

New Mozilla TOS diff. This is what they just removed:

* Does Firefox sell your personal data?

> Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. Thatโ€™s a promise.

The purpose of the new TOS appears to be to enable them to do this - such as for their advertising and AI sidelines.
