That seems more aligned with their mission of fighting misinformation on the web. It looks like fake spot was an acquisition so hopefully efforts like the ones mentioned in this post better help aligne this with their other goals.
That observation is… Very tangential to my comment. I’m not sure if anyone asked Mozilla Corp to start violating people’s privacy, and purchasing data sets, in order to allegedly fight misinformation (while showing ads in the same place, of course)…
What I’m saying is Mozzilla, from my understanding, didn’t set out to do that but instead aqquired a business that was in order to use their services to fight misinformation. We should pressure them to reform the new part of business to better align with the rest of Mozzilla’s goals.
but it is not a feature i want. not now, not ever. An inbuilt bullshit generator, now with less training and more bullshit is not something I ever asked for.
Training one of these ais requires huge datacenters, insanely huge datasets and millions of dollars in resources. And I’m supposed to believe one will be effectively trained by the pittance of data generated by browsing?
what in the actual fuck is this stupid shit and why is mozilla anywhere near it?
If Mozilla doesn’t diversify, it will die! Throwing money at [current year buzzword] is the only solution
Open source project focused on giving people features they want but in a privacy and censorship resistant way. Classic Moz

I’ve been trying. No luck so far. The only change to the Fakespot TOS was adding an allowance for private data to get sold to Mozilla…

Yes but I like it, so where do we go from here?
