Sim> People are really jumping to the worst possible interpretation of this.> I think there's some "abused dog syndrome" happening here: in recent years we have become so used to product offerings and privacy guarantees becoming steadily worse that we flinch whenever we think it might be happening again, even when what we're actually reacting to has no ill-intent.> The most likely explanation (and the one that Mozilla implies in their update) is that some lawyer has got twitchy about the fact that Mozilla don't ask for permission, when using user data, to do the thing that the user wants to do with it, i.e. send a web request.<a href="https://tildes.net/~tech/1maf/firefoxs_new_terms_of_use_grants_mozilla_complete_data_processing_rights_of_all_user_interactions#comment-ezdm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://tildes.net/~tech/1maf/firefoxs_new_terms_of_use_grants_mozilla_complete_data_processing_rights_of_all_user_interactions#comment-ezdm</a><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/114076167184310953" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/114076167184310953</a><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/mozilla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mozilla</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#firefox</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/termsOfUse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#termsOfUse</a>

Aral BalkanAnything you say or do in Firefox may be used by Mozilla against you. You have the right to use a different browser. If you cannot find a browser that doesn’t fuck you over one way or another, one will not be provided for you because capitalism is working exactly as designed.<a href="https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-terms-of-use/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-terms-of-use/</a><a href="https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/information-about-the-new-terms-of-use-and-updated-privacy/td-p/87735" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/information-about-the-new-terms-of-use-and-updated-privacy/td-p/87735</a><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Mozilla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mozilla</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Firefox</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/TermsOfUse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TermsOfUse</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SiliconValley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SiliconValley</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/BigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BigTech</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a>

CliffMozilla over here adding Terms of Use to Firefox, which I don't think will go over very well.
