I will be getting firefox-os just out of principle. I have a hard time trusting Apple or Google with my data. A (relatively) independent foundation just gives me a little bit more peace-of-mind that they are not trying to track, mine and predict the latest byte out of my phone.
- blub 13y agoWon't most FFOS apps talk by definition to a server? I wonder how "local" the native apps will be or whether developers will bother with working in offline mode even when connected to the internet.
- aram 13y agoIsn't Google behind Mozilla as well?
- jmilkbal 13y agoMozilla receive ad revenue from Google. AFAIK Google has no control over Mozilla except obviously enabling Google to preemptively place a cookie on users' machines using the default, Googley homepage. Google integration, by definition, defies Mozilla's mission, but it's not because Google controls them. I'm okay with the integration knowing that I can fix it, though I wish there were a start-up option for novices, though.
- aram 13y agoThanks for the answer.
- ben336 13y agoNo they are not.
