When I browse to firefox.com I get [1] which has this text: More privacy Firefox doesn’t sell access to your personal information like other companies. From privacy tools to tracking protection, you’re in charge of who sees what. Here’s how Firefox protects your privacy So yes they still advertise with that as one of the major features.

Indeed, I didn't find the subpage until later. I also like how, it isn't that you _have privacy_, but _more privacy_, because access isn't being sold like other companies. Someone must have noticed that they should only make promises they'll keep and toned down the language. For instance, from the same page 8 years ago: "we have experts around the globe working around the clock to keep you (and your personal information) safe." https://web.archive.org/web/20090827204813/http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html#feature-security https://web.archive.org/web/20090827204813/http://www.mozill... Or this quote from the equivalent site 6 years ago: "And, as a non-profit organization, protecting your privacy by keeping you in control over your personal information is a key part of our mission." https://web.archive.org/web/20110902025003/http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/central/ https://web.archive.org/web/20110902025003/http://www.mozill...
