Does Firefox sending URLs you visit to a an external service not constitute as unhealthy?
- dcow 6y agoYou can opt out of that (or is it opt in now), too.
- encryptluks2 6y agoYou can opt out with Chromium too
- _underfl0w_ 6y ago"What about $otherthing?" Neither is good, but that doesn't necessarily make the topic you're attempting to pivot to relevant in this situation. Also, Cloudflare (provider of the external service you mention, assuming you're talking about DNS-over-HTTPS) definitely isn't Google. At least not yet.
- encryptluks2 6y agoNo, I'm talking about their browser protection feature that is supposed to check for malware and unsafe domains.
- dcow 6y agoDoesn't that use a bloom filter? So in reality it’s very few if any of the urls you visit are actually sent anywhere.
