@[email protected] Of course a browser needs the data to build the DOM. They don’t need user data though, they don’t need to grant Mozilla a license to use that data. They also don’t need to remove all mentions of not selling data from their website. They also don’t need to focus on AI, add extensions into people’s webbrowsers, have the capacity to change terms without notifying users, or to add ad tech in the browser without notice. Mozilla has exceeded the goodwill I had for them.

I just think there’s an inherent contradiction between assuming that Mozilla are secretly planning to do bad things while making it public by publishing terms of use with constraints defined by the privacy policy.
If they were really trying to be secretive about it as you and others have said they could simply not publish any terms for implicit use at all.
I’m disappointed at how many other people have jumped on the same bandwagon attacking a FOSS product without nuance.

Btw How may channels have actually spoken with a contact at Mozilla to invite them to discuss this in an interview before just reporting and telling others to stop using any/all of their products?
