Very sustainable move to sustain million dollar paycheck for the CEO. Bravo! 🤢
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?
The Linux Foundation isn’t focused on Linux at all, so it fits. It’s in the hands of big corps, so you’ll be moving it from the pocket of Google to directly in control of a consortium of big tech.
Figured it’d be appropriate given how it’s now the home of servo and rust.
i feel that 😕
Fuck your Ai and your license agreement. Enshittification stops at no company.
FUCK THIS.
Can someone give a TL;DR of what’s actually changing?
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.E3: I think I misunderstood some conversations surrounding the topic for E2
Where do you see this? It applies to bookmarks too so Firefox Sync (which, surprise, is not E2E encrypted).
Maybe all their AI. And what about their new ads company?
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
no argument here
Is there a good guide to doing this yourself? I tried many years ago but didnt get very far.
Building firefox from source? I’ve never really investigated this but would be happy to learn with you when I get a moment.
