That's a powerful headline, but unless I'm being A/B tested, it has little to do with the article. Did you mean to link to "13 things to know about the GDPR"?

It seems to have been modeled off of https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/8m0f03/mozilla_will_not_update_its_privacy_policy_it/ https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/8m0f03/mozilla_wil...

  I got the email from mozilla too, where they say it's not another privacy policy update and link to that same blog post. I guess from the email it was implied that they are already compliant, but then the linked blog post in the email in no way confirms that... Weird. The email said: >> Does it seem like every service, app or subscription you've signed up for is sending you a privacy policy update? It's all because of the General Data Protection Regulation, aka the "GDPR," a sweeping new European regulation taking effect this Friday. GDPR has implications for many organizations, and that includes Mozilla. But unlike other organizations, Mozilla has always stood for and practiced data privacy principles that are at the heart of privacy laws like the GDPR. It feels like the rest of the world is catching up to where we've been all along.

I don't see where the current headline fits in with the blog post linked. Perhaps a better article (though I still can't see as strong a headline) would be https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/05/23/the-general-data-protection-regulation-and-firefox/ https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/05/23/the-general-data-pr... >Our Firefox data collection review process is the cornerstone of our effort to meaningfully practice privacy-by-design and assess privacy impacts to our users. We believe it is consistent with the GDPR’s requirements for privacy impact assessments. Mozilla has had this process in place for several years and revamped it in 2017.
