Unique Id is hardly anonymous.
Anonymous tracking is already part of the URL. The ?utm_source=unfck part of the URL helps Mozilla know how many people installed Firefox from that link.

- NikolaeVarius 6y agoWhat data is being leaked that can be used to break anonymity?
- ffpip 6y agoYou click the link. You get an ID assigned to you. You install the app. It calls back home with the ID and a list of specific apps on your Android. This tracking is happens continuously. You have to go to the settings and toggle the data collection off. In case it wasn't clear, I am not complaining. Analytics has its place, but the Unique ID's are a bit much, especially when they want to unfk the internet.
