So this, from Firefox, is fucking toxic: https://mstdn.social/@Lokjo/112772496939724214
You might be aware Chrome— a browser made by an ad company— has been trying to claw back the limitations recently placed on ad networks by the death of third-party cookies, and added new features that gather and report data directly to ad networks. You'd know this because Chrome displayed a popup.
If you're a Firefox user, what you probably don't know is Firefox added this feature and *has already turned it on without asking you*
I know, that’s awful. I also turn it off. But that’s actually different than the new feature mentioned in this post. This has existed for years already (I think)
WTF… i thought this was just click bait but went to check on my phone as i am not at my PC right now
I’m on 128 on my phone. I just checked and both of those are disabled for me.
Same
double same
Triple same.
Idk what 128 is on a phone, but my galaxy s21 had everything still off. Guess I’ll have to keep an eye on it
I’m on 128 on my phone and it was on for me, I definitely didn’t turn those on myself. wtf.
These are old options. I checked these off long ago.
Just checked mine and it’s all disabled
I’m using Mull.
It was on for me too, wtf…
I’m using mull fork of Firefox which doesn’t even have these settings, the tracking features are completely removed from the browser.

I mostly see telemetry requests getting blocked in my firewall. Is there anything else I’ve missed?
