5946 Firefox Terms of Use
Effective February 25, 2025
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/legal/
"When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox."
so, let it be clear:
I DO NOT CONSENT to Mozilla Corp. accessing or using ANYTHING i type in my browser, whether to serve ads, train LLMs or ANYTHING.
OK so here is a beginning of a plan:
1/ find the browser (or fork of firefox for now) that one can transition to;
2/ keep one instance of firefox for one and only one purpose:
- typing (and automating the typing) of what we truly think about mozilla, firefox and their overlord google ("F*CK OFF FIREFOX", etc. )
- granting them a "nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use" *that* sort of input coming from us, and only that!
- let them train LLM and "help us navigate" with that!
@jz 1/ => LibreWolf? :)
@scops LibreWolf is great (rather *seems* great as i haven't read its source code myself..) may be OK for now.
But do we have the collective resources (incl. funding) to audit all of ffox' code and updates?
Will we be able to detect and counter the upcoming waves of #enshitification, based on the new master plan of grabbing "licenses to use" everyone's data? How long before this becomes sisyphian? A viable strategy in the long-run? What alternatives?
Time for these difficult questions..
