No; Firefox can easily afford financially to add this feature. Firefox is already irrelevant; no developer will shed a tear about just blocking Firefox if they refuse to implement. Boycotting won't work either, because boycotts almost never work.
- codedokode 2y agoFirefox doesn't have ad measurement and interests sharing built in yet (or am I wrong?) so it is very relevant for me. I would rather use black-and-white selects everywhere rather than having an advertising engine built into the browser.

- codedokode 2y agoThat is disappointing. I went into settings to turn this off but it is already turned off and I don't remember whether I did it or my distribution ships Firefox with non-recommended settings. I hope it is the latter so that I don't get disappointed in Linux distributions also. "Privacy preserving attribution" sounds like "money preserving robbery" (or money preserving tax).
- misiek08 2y ago> Firefox is already irrelevant Did I miss anything? It’s still not as clumsy and resource intensive (while destroying hardware like disks) like Chrome..
- kelnos 2y agoGP means irrelevant in the sense that Firefox's market share is so low that web devs need not test on it or ensure compatibility. This saddens me, as a Firefox user, but we have Mozilla's inept management to blame for this.
