Lunduke: Use Firefox? Mozilla Says it Can Use Your Data However it Wants

[Kiislova]

So Mozilla now can spy on anything you do, and apparently use it to advertise to you (obviously) but also curb harm, defining harm as Mozilla does it could mean anything including visiting this site.

Edit: For a free software company they sure seem to dislike "Freedom 0"

TL;DR: Use brave.

Edit 1: One of the worying parts of the new TOS:

Edit 2:
It seems mozilla is having an exercise in corpo speak on their own forums.

Edit 3:
They changed the wording around a bit, to say exactly the same as before. The infamous "royalty-free, worldwide license" is still there.

Just disable the telemetry and all the other bullshit from Firefox with Betterfox? I'm not sure how this is so hard.

And for the niggers who bitch and moan about le Firefox not being private or whatever, here's the motherfucking defining silver bullet of user.js's to end all complaints.

You could also just compile it youself without the telemetry shit

I've always found firefox to not be as snappy as brave. I really only use it for troubleshooting. I would actually daily-drive firefox if adnausem worked as good as ubo for adblocking.

 

[Miller]

Well, Mozilla is an ad company after all.
I use le shill lion.

 

[Pee Cola]

Despite being a buggy heap of shit that gets worse upon every release, as well as this bullshit Mozilla pulled (because controlled opposition), Firefox is arguably the least worst browser out there.

TL;DR: Use brave.

Other than being based on the Chrome engine, great idea.

Brave (or a Brave-like browser) on its own engine would be a killer app.

For the ones that did not even watch the first minute this is the worrying part.

 

[Fcret]

meh I'll just switch to a fork or Brave

Mozilla having their entire org gutted and parasitized by MBAs, women, and jeets is sad but it's the nature of the beast. At least everyone has kinda woken up to the dangers of there only really being two major browser engines on the market.

 

[CEO of Autism]

I'll just keep using librewolf

 

[GeorgeFloydFentanylStash]

Hey Mozilla, use Deez Nuts

This seems like a non-issue. How will Mozilla prevent anyone from gutting everything that allows them to see what a user uploads or "inputs"? Mozilla already has telemetry. Besides that, I'm sure that there will be enough push back against this shit since no one tolerates anything like it anymore. A small portion of normies are becoming semi tech-literate so they'll understand what this means. Plus, you know how people say to use Brave or Firefox to get away from Google Chrome? Well, people are just going to recommend something like Librewolf which guts most things anyways so they can get away from Firefox doing this.

Neat that Git never forgets.
Good to know.

 

[Prophetic Spirit]

God damn it.
First i changed Chrome to Mozilla for keeping the good use of UBlock Origin.
Now this?
What's the alternative then? Using Brave? Works pretty good in my smartphone at least.

 

[Grub]

When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox.

The optimistic rainbow side of me wants to believe this limits them from selling your information or giving it to third parties but the much larger realistic side of me knows that it's easy for a lawyer to somehow frame whoring your personal information out as 'helping you experience online content.' I wonder how this applies to shit like bank account info and other personal shit like that.

[The Connected Nose]

Whatever happened to a browser just being a program that displays pages as they were intended by the site designer, instead of trying to be a bloated "experience" where the ostensible core feature is relegated to a sidenote?

For that matter I also miss the days when an operating system was just something to allow whatever you wanted to run on your hardware, not some overbearing "digital assistant" or what have you.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some clouds to yell at.

Is there any browser that isn't Jewware?

 

[ArgonianVoter]

the second they introduced RUST I knew it had gone to shit.

 

[Hellwalker]

Is there any browser that isn't Jewware?

I guess the only contender are debloated browsers like Ungoogled-chromium or Librewolf.
