    Mozilla just coming out with hit after hit.

    Can we start a petition to stipulate that the ownership should move from Mozilla to the Linux Foundation, just as a meme and to see where it gets to?

      Here’s an interesting excerpt:

      When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox.

      E: fwiw, Firefox built from source is exempt from these terms of use. Forks are also a great option but I wonder if Linux distros will approach this accordingly.

      E2: apparently these ToU only apply when using their chatbot.

        If your terms of service aren’t enforced across the board, it’s because they’re shady to begin with… If technical users can opt out, so should non technical users

          Building firefox from source? I’ve never really investigated this but would be happy to learn with you when I get a moment.
