please don’t!! linux repository people don’t do that please!! firefox is still awesome and, i haven’t really read the change the firefox foundation has made, but i really hope this does not mean it will stop existing on linux. will debian replace it with waterweasel?

i still like firefox and i’m content it’s still open source at least!!!

    Here you go: https://wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Mozilla_introduces_TOS_to_Firefox#Mozilla's_Business_Model_=&_Potential_CCPA_Violations=

    Or you can watch a helpful video. https://youtu.be/-8bTquKjzos

    Basically, the internet is overreacting again, but it’s partly because Mozilla is shit at communicating. They should know better and understand that we’re all experiencing rapid enshittification. Corporations aren’t trustworthy. You can’t just remove mention of “not selling your data” and just expect average people to parse the laws and your ToS and your Privacy Policy and connect all the pieces.

      I would contradict you. The internet is not overreacting, Mozilla and parts of its community try to downplay the issue at hand.

        Because they won’t read. They look at the change of the ToS only and think that they understand what has changed.

        I don’t particularly care which browser people use; I just want people to be able to make an informed decision, thus I provided evidence that the internet is overreacting. Where’s yours?
