Firefox is just another US-corporate product with an 'open source' sticker on it.

Their version 128 update has auto checked a new little privacy breach setting.

If you still use a corporate browser, at least do some safety version! We mainly use @librewolf based on firefox. (yes, we know, a stable european or even non-US browser is still considered 'futuristic' in europe)

@9tr6gyp3 Anonymous data is a myth & I also see zero ads. Adblock blocks ads from loading, or even being requested in the first place.

Source for how this anonymization is a myth?

@9tr6gyp3 I'm not responding to argue with you, I'm responding because these are things I've seen people be serious about, even though it's clear you're not. I think I've covered everything so I'm done. This was never to give you any attention, I don't like trolls because they're annoying, & your account looks like a bizarre mix of trolling & genuine interaction to me, like one of those Reddit kids you see screenshots of in quityourbullshit that doesn't know other people can see their post history.

I know its tough to source something that says that this new Firefox anonymization tool for advertisers will individually fingerprint someone, but if you find it, please share it and I will gladly read through it.

Have a good day.
