It seems like your objection to the Normandy system is that the UX surrounding it includes the word “Studies”. I am grateful they chose in this instance to prioritize repairing addons worldwide over the confusion that word has caused you and potentially others. I assume, having seen this and other such comments delivered with outrage rather than thankfulness today, that they will re-evaluate the UX surrounding the Normandy system to ensure that it more clearly designates non-study changes as such.
- toyg 8y agoIt's not about designation, it's about control. If Mozilla really cares about trust, they shouldn't mix their update delivery system, which should care for timely security-related material, with general telemetry, data-gathering, and experiments. I use FF because I care about principles. Otherwise I might as well just let myself be exploited by Google, MS, Apple and friends.
- floatingatoll 8y agoAh, you object to Normandy’s design in some manner. That’s being hashed out in today’s Normandy thread, and if you haven’t already read that link you’ll definitely want to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19825830 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19825830 (While of course you’re welcome to continue pursuing your issues with it here, your opinions will receive more views there.)
