Anyway, May 13 is fairly recent, but it's two full months before the ship of Firefox 128. I'm skimming this policy and I do not see an explanation of, or reference to, the Ad Measurement feature (am I missing something??)

Did Firefox actually ship, *and enable by default without user notification*, a feature specifically designed for reporting to advertisers via a backchannel what ads the browser has seen, *without first updating their privacy policy to disclose it???*

@mcc In addition to the Privacy Policy mess, they are coming awfully close to -- if not over - the line for Human Subjects research.

God, the Firefox download page is so funny now given what I've learned in the last 72 hours

(And yes, the "firefox privacy notice" link at the bottom of this page links to the May 13 privacy policy.)
