MODERATORS
In their eyes they just made 30 million more customers.
Fucking parasites.
They made Firefox a good number of new customers.
Firefox isn’t exactly “the good guys” either
I prefer flawed but trying guys to guys with zero morals that farm every ounce of data they can.
Firefox has telemetry too
And it can be turned off.
100% of it? Nope.
What are you stating cannot be turned off?
This sounds baseless without any evidence.
You cannot make Firefox have zero connections to the Internet.
Of course not. It's an internet browser. What point are you trying to make?
It’s sending your data, how dense are you
It's open source. You're assuming this is telemetry without having an idea. Could be diagnostics, could be pocket, could be sync check.
Without evidence, sounds like a load of FUD.
It's ironic you call me dense.
Diagnostics is just a nicer term for telemetry. And sorry for calling you dense, you’re clearly here to market Firefox, you’re just a bad guy.
No. It's when bugs and crashes happen, and trying to identify how. Such as stack traces for example, or memory usage when an app keels over.
I'm not here to market FF, I'm here trying to counter balance the Firefox haters that spend so much hate to trash the only real legitimate chance we have of Google not dictating web standards. I don't know why so many people shill for billion dollar companies. Do they love Google that much, or are they simply useful idiots?
So you’re dense and evil? Do you say least have a huge cock / tight box?
You're insufferable. Surprised you still ain't on reddit. That's where the corporate bootlickers are. I guess Lemmy.world is the next best place.
You might want to look up what Mozilla is, son
I know enough, little one. Maybe you do.
Your whole concept of what a corporation is seems to be in shambles. Try to be less forward, you’re embarrassing yourself. You’re 100% tude, 0% knowledge.
