Taking other people’s creative works to create your own for-profit product is illegal in every way except when AI does it.
No, actually its completely legal to consume content that was uploaded to the internet and then use it as inspiration to create your own works.
Because Mozilla takes a metric shitload of your data via fakespot such as (but not limited to)
Internet or other electronic network activity (e.g., browsing history, search history, information regarding an individual’s interaction with an internet website, application, or advertisement, and online viewing activities)
https://www.fakespot.com/privacy-policy
And then sells it to advertisers
apt remove firefox (or via pacman, windows settings etc)
Otherwise should be a bunch of flags you can set in about:config
Lol who the f trusts Mozilla nowadays?

Just a snippet of the privacy policy. There’s other bad stuff too like location tracking. It’s also all ran through Google analytics.
So much for a privacy respecting Mozilla
Same reason why they serve Lemmy instances despite illegal content on Lemmy: section 230 of the DMCA
Grayjay seems to fix things real fast, been using that a lot lately
Anything on the signal protocol could have an infected cilent be delivered, or backdoor server side by providing the wrong keys.
Facebook might comply. Would guess that Signal would refuse and would be hit by some absurd fee like 100mil a day for not complying and be forced to pull their services out of the UK.

Totally agree, unfortunately it’s a question of whether Chromium forks can’t keep up with cutting out Google stuff comes before or after Mozilla and/or their rendering engine falls apart.
Fingers crossed for Ladybird + Servo
Some browsers have built in adblock (by reimplementing mv2 apis or otherwise) and cut out the hangouts plugin or let you disable it
Not all, but a couple
The Fennec fork on android may be worth looking into
A custom user.js might be a good base to work off of. For example https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox
But jumping ship might be your best bet. Forks like Librewolf are good or otherwise a privacy respecting Chromium browser can work well too.
I would absolutely download a car 😆

With the fan turning on, unfortunately it’s potentially due to Firefox being a little more resource heavy. Could be Chromium is a bit under the threshold and Firefox is a little over.
There’s a lot of companies that produce them, and at least a few big brand names that are making their own and for sure not just relabeling something else.
They probably communicated news of the phase out though fax
I mean if they’re gonna give money without demanding anything I’m sure no complaints from the devs.
Shopify or an exec there might find some value in avoiding Google owning the web, could maybe bring goodwill for the company, or they could just be looking for a write off.
