Mozilla tried to launch a site to help educate people while tracking engagement?
This seems like a much bigger issue than the NSA copying entire datastreams from American internet hubs.
- sp332 11y agoI don't get your comment (even sarcastically). It's not that big, but it's still a problem. People who are trying to avoid being tracked would probably prefer not being tracked. The page is self-defeating.
- hobs 11y agoWell I do! Complaining about a moz site having google analytics is 100% bike shedding, everyone has an opinion because they have no idea how to fix or address the bigger issues, so lets complain about a website, we all know how to do that! If we cannot pick our battles, then we will just lose because of the dissipation of all of our efforts across everything "that is still a problem". When I weigh out the benefits vs the costs, I dont see why moz would pick any other option, everything else is more work, and google already tracks you across most of the internet. Whether or not you showed up on a mozilla page is not going to change their understanding of your habits by much.
