Apparently mozilla wants the right to get data from firefox users. But not like general information, they want to know what data you upload or download through firefox.

Without it, we couldn’t use information typed into Firefox, for example.

What the fuck? I use firefox because I want privacy!!! Not sharing my information with a company.

We need a license to allow us to make some of the basic functionality of Firefox possible. WHY DO YOU NEED MY DATA TO MAKE FIREFOX WORK???

    Reading through their privacy policy, it seems pretty normal stuff to me… Even ensuring that more data stays local than other browsers.

    This sounds like bad communication more than bad software.

      This isn’t really even bad communication. This is idiots with a platform screaming FUD for attention.
