Firefox Terms of Use
Effective February 25, 2025
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/legal/
"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."
so, let it be clear:
I DO NOT CONSENT to Mozilla Corp. accessing or using ANYTHING i type in my browser, whether to serve ads, train LLMs or ANYTHING.
@benjaoming this is apparently "Effective February 25, 2025" so they will likely argue that yes, it is effective now and on all versions.
Has the software being "updated to these new functionalities" (we cannot speak of "backdoor" if they announce in advance they gonna spy on us, can we?) yet?
I guess that you dont have more than i do the capacity to audit all of firefox' code, along all of its updates...? :/
We'll need to seriously mutualize (as in "fund" and "organize") resistance....
@jz We need a European (?) Mozilla that builds Firefox according to GDPR - but also just common sanity. And maybe calling it "Mozilla" and "Firefox" isn't gonna work because of trademark stuff.
So basically, Iceweasel but for all platforms and a rather large professionalized backing organization.
(suggesting Europe because GDPR + maybe political support for digital sovereignty can produce public funding)
