I think they're trying to make the distinction between "we sell your searches and clicks attached to your personal id" and "we sell derivative aggregated information like we have a lot of users of X style to advertise to". But it's kinda hard to sift through exactly what they can and can't sell under this.
- luckylion 2y agoWouldn't derivative aggregated information not be included in definitions like the one quoted because they specifically about personal data? If you sell the information how many customers you have and how many shoes you've sold last month, are you selling your customer's personal data?
- wtallis 2y ago> If you sell the information how many customers you have and how many shoes you've sold last month, are you selling your customer's personal data? To make that analogy fair for the scope of what Mozilla's doing, the shoe store would have to be selling data about what color shirts people are wearing when they visit the shoe store.
- skydhash 2y agoThat is fair. But a more accurate analogy would be that the sales representative that goes to people house is reporting to the store what color people are wearing at home. Firefox is installed on my computer, not on a VPS owned by Mozilla. I'm not browsing Mozilla website. Why are they entitled to record and share everything I do?
