Heads up, Mozilla is on the way to be notorious Google services/Google Cloud user [0]. Recently, they started adoption of the Google Spanner in the Firefox-Sync related backend services, while in others they adopted the Google Pub Sub. The use of GA and GTM might seem like hypocrisy but my guess mozillians don't have enough workforce and/or assets to control infrastructure to roll their own analytics platform.

  Worth noting that Mozilla does have a special contract with Google, they say preserver privacy.

    Yet still I think we should point it out. Mozilla can't have their cake, and eat it, too.
