Mozilla’s model would only “do something for privacy” if it replaced what we have today. Not if it just ran alongside the others. That’s not absurd, it’s reality.
That’s not what this is. Neither Mozilla, nor anybody else, has any data tied to you.
That’s the kind of data companies like Meta and Google (I’m sure among others I don’t know) track and use to sell ads today . That is their entire business model. And they will not stop it of their own free will for an alternative that gives them less useful data than they had before.
Mozilla’s model does nothing for privacy unless legislation forces companies to quit the current more invasive kind of tracking. But if it did that, we would have won and wouldn’t need Mozilla’s model either.
