Really love how GNOME Settings links to this excellent page on Mozilla’s privacy policy for location data.
#GNOME #Mozilla #location #data #privacy
Ah, this is because Mozilla Location Services is dead (I guess it wasn’t AI enough). And now GNOME are considering Google – because, why not? Nothing wrong with Google, amirite?
@aral@mastodon.ar.al You seem to be a bit harsh here. What could Mozilla have done to not be sued by what seems to be a patent troll? And what alternative location service should Gnome rather move to? I hate Google, but AFAIK there are no real alternative. Have I missed any? Personally I think they should probably rather not have a location service at all rather than use Google, but I can understand that some might think it’s necessary to support it.
@aral@mastodon.ar.al I don’t see any URL (47.0.1).
@lebout2canap@mastodon.tedomum.net I’m on 46.4 – so they likely removed that.
Is Google implemented in 47?
@aral@mastodon.ar.al 🤷 (I never use this kind of service)
