Adding Pocket, which is basically the Read It Later feature that every other browser has, and there is no complaint about, is trivial compared to Google, say, logging you into your Google account in Chrome when you log into GMail in your browser.
Also, the OP comment is hilarious because they clearly seem to have forgotten why people bitched about Pocket in the first place. It wasn’t because it was an integration of Mozilla’s services. It was exactly the opposite. It was the fact that Pocket was NOT a Mozilla service at the time the integration happened that people bitched about it.
Which just goes to show that it wasn’t a real concern, but a Twitter net pointless and baseless moral crusade.
- rakoo 6y agoThe concern with Pocket is primarily, IMO, that the service wasn't and still isn't Open Source, which is a hard sell for a browser that champions user control.
