Mozilla is already revising its new Firefox terms to clarify how it handles user data - Reddthat

AI Summary: Overview: - Mozilla is updating its new Terms of Use for Firefox due to criticism over unclear language about user data. - Original terms seemed to give Mozilla broad ownership of user data, causing concern. - Updated terms emphasize limited scope of data interaction, stating Mozilla only needs rights necessary to operate Firefox. - Mozilla acknowledges confusion and aims to clarify their intent to make Firefox work without owning user content. - Company explains they don’t make blanket claims of “never selling data” due to evolving legal definitions and obligations. - Mozilla collects and shares some data with partners to keep Firefox commercially viable, but ensures data is anonymized or shared in aggregate.

Too late, I switched to Floorp.

Because of privacy stuff? No. Because of repeated drama? Yes.

I don’t have time for this stuff. I don’t have time to track every minute twist of the knife that Google’s funding drives Mozilla to embark on.

I’m bored of using software and watching it go through “death by a thousand minor dramas”

So now I use a web browser that has a name so stupid I don’t even recommend it to other people. Brilliant.

Floorp isn’t recommended for its privacy features anyway, it’s recommended by users for the amount of customization you can do. It’s got some features that Firefox has that I don’t want to do without.
