    yeah like people keep saying that there is need for someone better than biden, but at the moment he’s the only option thst is valid. it’s about damage control not about making everything utopia.

    they complain that biden is not good enough, while completely ignoring that trump is literal neonazi. how in the fuck it is even question wheter you should vote for trump or biden because the fact is that either of them is going to the office. not some third candinate who would be actually good

    barefoot shoes saved my back I used to have constant backpain since teenagers, now I have walked one year with barefoot shoes nad my posture is better than ever and I feel some stiffness at worst. I do walk a lot and play disc golf pretty much though, but I did before barefoot shoes too and I still had back pains.

    also worth noting I started using them at almost 23 years old

    yeah I can trust them with no ip logging because I live in eu and if that big of a company breaks their own rules it’s going to get noted and addressed

    and without the ip you just keep sending quite basic stuff anonymously. nobody is getting tracked by that. it’s just pretty anoymous data which ingludes general stuff like tab count, information about your ROUGH location (ip based, not accurate), hardware, clicks, count of clicks, times page visited etc… so just basic stuff that has literally nothing to do with the actual user. the link to your telemetry ends at the moment they don’t tell the actual stuff that identifies you like your ip. please if you disagree, what part of that data don’t you want to be shared because it has something to do with your privacy? it’s all anonymous.

    firefox is an opensource software where literally anyone can view the source code and check themselves what is actually sent. you argument all you want with the “but can youn trust them?” but literally anyone esle except some guy on youtube didn’t feel like complaining about firefox

    it’s an opensource software, running with the expenses of a big browser. the fact that you let firefox use your anonymous telemetry for royalties is the least you can do to support browser like that. it is literally your specs, location by city, amount of clicks, where the clicks were, when it happened, and possibly some other stuff that I can’t remember. all which is sent without you ip or other indications? what about those is actualy sacred?

    also the sharing with third party service is only current with the current search service so you can choose yourself where you want to give your data in search engines.

    and the google ad sevice only gets your ad-id which doesn’t get linked to you if you don’t use other google services in which case this conversation is pointless.

    sorry if I missed something I’m high as fuck

    But I see no reason for fearmongering or untrust. they are literally OPEN FUCKING SOURCE!

    edit: and of course they are doing a lot of businnes with googe it is literally the biggest and easiest advertiser and they need money from somewhere. doesn’t meen they spy on YOU and track YOUR data as your own and sell it with your info slapped on it.

    they have 1100 employees to pay for and a LOT of servers for almost 15 million users. think about the costs with the mind that they also have to take profit to grow and get more customers. they cant stay completely still with growth and profits if they want to get more users and servers space. it takes a lot more resources to get as any users as it took in the firefox glory days

    after reading the privacy site that doesn’t sound too bad. or at least “tracks you private data and shares it with their business partners” bad which makes it sound like they are literally spying on you.

    they do send telemetry data yes, but not your ip or anything that could be used to track against you, they do share some data while using the search function from url bar which is prettt much necessary and that seems to be only the stuff you typed.

    most of it seems to just be about sponsored content where they send the amount of clicks and time when those clicks happened so advertisers know some statistics and advertisors get their royalties. firefox does suggest you content based on your browsing history but that happens locally. in no point does you browsing history go outside your computer, which is the most important part to me. they do know what was suggested, but not how it was suggested

    so in conclusion, they do send some device information, information about your clicks and where those clicks happened and some other very basic telemetry with no information that could be tracked to you.

    of course if one want the ultimate privacy that can be a dealbreaker. but to say that they collect your private data is quite an overstatement imo. I couldn’t give a damn if my browsing is part of some anonymous statistics.

    but yeah in a way you’re correct, they do collect data. like almost literally every application does in the modern era
