Read the Pocket and Mozilla FakeSpot privacy policies. They collect a lot if data, including browsing history, and do so via Google Analytics. They then share that data with advertisers.

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)

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?

Used to be the case that if you criticized Firefox you’d get down voted without question but lol Stockholm syndrome has it’s limits. The enshitification is too obvious now and open criticism is accepted.

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.

We also share aggregated, non-personal data and related usage information, which does not contain any personal information which can identify you or any other individual user, with third parties, including content providers, website operators, advertisers and publishers.

… and they’re tracking your searches, collecting massive amounts of telemetry, and using pocket that collects and sells your data.

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.

Stream in a VM then OBS record that window? Never done so, just spitballing.

First off there’s no such thing as 100% clean or renewable power. Solar panels are metals (mined with petroleum powered equipment and probably refined in China using coal) plus petroleum products (plastics etc). They’re shipped around on trucks and boats, and if they’re burnt to remove the petrolium products before extracting the metals when they’re ‘recyced’ then it’s literally burning fossil fuels.

Not only that but they’re buying RECs. The power they’re consuming could very well be 100% generated by coal, but they gave a few bucks to somebody who had solar or wind.
