I was pointing out that this is a new opt-in change. The links that were posted prove it. Is that FUD?
> specific and concrete
In the absence of specific information, should we not assume the worst?
> data collection
That sounds reasonable for normal users, but any of this data can be used for fingerprinting, data mining, etc. Do you disagree?
One suggestion for improvement would be that the specifics of what data is collected and why would be a welcome addition to the Privacy Policy page, or perhaps a more detailed page that the PP links to. This would be something people could paste in public forums to refute incorrect statements... especially if the page was on mozilla.org instead of Medium.
- mintplant 9y agoI believe the information you're asking for is already all there on the privacy policy page, broken down by feature and with links to disable each, even. It also includes a link to the full technical docs on Firefox telemetry: https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/components/telemetry/telemetry/index.html https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/components/t... The wording of the search partnership disclaimer could be made clearer. Is there anything else that you find confusing or disconcerting?
- jamiesonbecker 9y agoThanks - this is really helpful! I appreciate this link, missed it the first time.
