Comment on Mozilla is already revising its new Firefox terms to clarify how it handles user data
monogram@feddit.nl 14 hours agoIt’s not it’s just slightly less bad than Firefox on the perspective of ownership,
E.g.: under the new guidelines by Mozilla you’re not allowed to bookmark pornhub
This is thanks to Mozilla’s focus on “privacy respecting “ advertisement and ai, go to any open source conference and you’ll see a list of ai talks by them.

I’m gonna need some evidence for that.
The only thing that’s “worse” about Firefox’s TOS IMO is that it gives them the right to “sell” your data, which seems to mostly apply to their business deals with advertisers (e.g. Google search and Pocket). Google doesn’t need that because they are the advertiser.
With Firefox, you can disable Pocket and change the search engine and you’re probably good. With chrome, you can’t really get away from it, especially since you can’t install an effective ad blocker anymore.
Brave’s TOS are better, but I only use them as a backup because I believe strongly in alternative rendering engines. For that reason I still recommend Firefox, though with an asterisk that they should consider a fork if they don’t want to disable defaults.
