   #PSA

   You know by now that #Mozilla has been more of a advertising company by the day especially after buying a ad company back in June: https://www.theregister.com/2024/06/18/mozilla_buys_anonym_betting_privacy/

   Now they're rolling out "Privacy Preserving Attribution for Advertising" in partnership with Meta/FB as of #Firefox 128 and they're not even telling you unless you pay attention: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/privacy-preserving-attribution-for-advertising/

   This is surely bullshit as this great thread indicates. https://mastodon.social/@mcc/112775362045378963

     Here's some more threads on how to shut it off as of #Firefox 128 (which sadly most people, especially normies won't care): https://gladtech.social/@cuchaz/112775302929069283

     It's yet another example into why #Mozilla is flat out of touch and why they're deep into irrelevance which they've have been for the past decade.

     Thankfully I use #Tor and #Librewolf so it won't have these options but we really need browser engine alternatives now more than ever since we know that #Mozilla and #Gecko can't be saved at this point.

     Which reminds me that #Servo needs a lot more support... https://servo.org/
