It's not happening to me with Firefox 95.0.1 on Ubuntu 20.04. I'm disabling http3 anyway. Re-enabling it when Mozilla will explain what's going on. Edit: readi

It's not happening to me with Firefox 95.0.1 on Ubuntu 20.04. I'm disabling http3 anyway. Re-enabling it when Mozilla will explain what's going on.
Edit: reading further comments it occurred to me that maybe I'm not affected because I'm not sending any data to Mozilla so I don't hit their HTTP3 load balancer.
- jacquesm 5y agoDisable telemetry while you're at it: "Firefox Data Collection and Use" in settings. It seems to have re-enabled itself on some silent update. Sneaky bastards.
- pmontra 5y agoIt didn't re-enable for me.
- jacquesm 5y agoWhen did you disable it?
- romland 5y agoAnecdotal and same for me (it's not re-enabled). I have not touched those telemetry settings for years, cannot say exactly when.
- pmontra 5y agoAges ago, probably the first time Mozilla added telemetry to the browser. Go interview people Mozilla. Less analytical data but you'll end up knowing your users.
- haakon 5y agoI was surprised to find I had telemetry enabled. I could have sworn I disabled it, but it would have been a long time ago, so I was thinking maybe I remember it wrong. I would like to see any source that may exist on it having been silently re-enabled. I know telemetry is anonymized and totally harmless or whatever, but re-enabling it behind my back would feel like such a breach of trust.
- jacquesm 5y agoI keep a careful log of such stuff and I'm 100% sure that I disabled it on all machines here. This definitely got re-enabled silently at some point, I am trying to figure out when. Not having such crap is the reason I use Firefox so it is hard to express my disappointment at this.
- starsep 5y agoIt was re-enabled for me as well. browser.crashReports.unsubmittedCheck.autoSubmit2 and datareporting.healthreport.uploadEnabled
