…This one?

This one isn’t very privacy-friendly or open. And that raises all the previous questions again. Should they maybe have learned something about clandestinely fucking with people’s systems?

Look, at this point it’s not the user’s responsibility to “chill out”. It’s very much Firefox’s responsibility to try to repair their reputation by:

1. being completely transparent about all the mechanisms that data or code can be pushed to or pulled by the browser, or pushed from or pulled from the browser; and

2. having a toggle for all of them, yes every single one, in Privacy & Security.

Both sound like Nickelback to me so I don’t know…

Some of the comments here are a little too optimistic, although this is a victory.

The fight is not over yet. The directive needs to be written, and ideally in a way that prevents this from being brought back to the table again.

Sure, but copyright vampires have been setting this up for years.

They’re reading everything. It says so in the TOS.

Even if that were true, would that have reduced innovation? How many other innovators has Amazon crushed—fueled by the “top income”?

Have you considered how, say, a recruiter might view your CV differently from someone just getting started?

I would not imagine even the legal requirement would reduce the safeguarding requirements nor allow an increase to the necessary retention period.

Not sure what you mean by optimize, but MLB teams often play several games against each other in a row.

But that’s slightly different because it could be seen to change the dynamic form performance over a season to fewer best out of N events.

Baseball is a bit different because they play 2x as many games per season,so they need to bundle up.

They don’t need to, but they have found it to be more… optimal.
