Thought this was interesting and worth knowing about
$6M, but if you look at the California law that spurred this change, the Privacy Policy that hasn’t changed since July 2024, and the revised ToS, this looks mostly like a really, really, really stupid communication error.
It’s one of those cases where legally, “sell” includes things that most people wouldn’t consider a sale in normal parlance, but Mozilla has to comply with the overbroad legal definition; meanwhile, they don’t appear to be fundamentally changing anything about how they’re operating.
ETA: I’m still moving to LibreWolf (and maybe Ladybird later on). I’m not a lawyer, and expecting people like me to parse legal definitions of commonly understood words is just asinine.
It isn’t supposed to be ready, of course you’d rather have something ready. Ladybird is not even available yet unless you’re building from source to test the pre alpha progress
Who is the moron at Mozilla that thought it would be a good idea to sell user information, and how much does he make a year?

Ladybird is interesting, but not ready to be a daily driver yet.
Alpha release is expected in 2026, it isn’t trying to be ready yet, and I love that.
I’d rather have something fully cooked than half-baked.
You’re missing the point:
