@yoasif @aeva Tell me why FF needs to send all that excessive metadata via google and cloudflare every single time? Why telemetry CANT be disabled? Tell me google doesnt keep a log of FF created user IDs it receives to keep track of where I go? Worth mentioning your potential vested interest as FF subreddit mod. @shved @aeva I haven't done anything on that sub-reddit in weeks at this point, and I doubt I am going back. You aren't going to count Cisco and ISPs as well in your conspiracy? If you aren't going to engage in good faith, what is the point? We can't have a discussion where people espouse conspiracy theories that then have to be knocked down as straw men. In any case, Google and Cloudflare don't get Firefox generated ids that keep track of where-ever you go. You need to prove that. Can you? @yoasif @aeva FF HAS all the metadata to id me, it DOES forward my data via untrustworthy channels, it CAN show it to them in the process. Therefore - it DOES. I think its a perfectly reasonable assumption purely based on our world of non-existent privacy and user-as-product. I'll leave a link for further reading. Yes it goes a bit OTT with paranoia, BUT the points made are worth considering. @shved @aeva Sorry, now you are saying that Mozilla forwards your data via "untrustworthy channels". Are you seriously saying that Mozilla has been breached? Where is the evidence? Beyond that, what data are you referring to that is identifiable, and even if it is identifiable, how is it interesting? When Google gets my browsing data, they show me ads. When Mozilla knows how many tabs and windows I have open... what, what happens? Explain it please. |
@shved @aeva Scary stuff is reading my browsing history. about:telemetry is innocuous data that developers can use to make the product better.
Maybe try to make me care about the FUD before going fully histrionic?
