So this, from Firefox, is fucking toxic: https://mstdn.social/@Lokjo/112772496939724214
You might be aware Chrome— a browser made by an ad company— has been trying to claw back the limitations recently placed on ad networks by the death of third-party cookies, and added new features that gather and report data directly to ad networks. You'd know this because Chrome displayed a popup.
If you're a Firefox user, what you probably don't know is Firefox added this feature and *has already turned it on without asking you*
You described ad tracking. Also why is an open source browser wasting time and money to create such a feature that no user needs?
Its impression tracking, not user tracking and its forced anonymous by design. There’s a few gigantic differences.
And they’re doing it to try and find a better way for advertisers to get some information without having to track everything you do (what happens now)
As a user, I don’t need this.
As a user, if this replaces active tracking of your browsing, is that better for you?
Do you need your privacy from web tracking?
Or do you currently love having Google track everything you do?
How is tracking better than blocking tracking? What kind of world are you living in?
The world where I read the release notes.
Ask yourself the same question?
How is tracking better than a counter?
Currently they’re tracking everything you do. Mozilla thinks they should only get a counter.
Which of those is better?
