How is anyone NOT using @mozilla #Firefox by now? Between this and intentionally slowing #YouTube traffic for Firefox/uBlock users, #Google is officially evil. Please support an #open #decentralized non-profit #Internet !

@tilvids

Yes they’re targeting uBlock, no they’re not targeting Firefox per se. Edge users also report this issue.

How about just boycotting YouTube?

beezy :archlinux: :cupofcoffee:

@tilvids @mozilla And if we could just get mozilla to actually turn off telemetry when a user changes the setting, that'd be nice. I love #firefox and I'll never not use it. But the fact that I have to go into about:config to *actually* turn off the telemetry, that's kind of shady. Not nearly as shady as #google is, no, but it's not complete transparency.
