    Mozilla just coming out with hit after hit.

    Can we start a petition to stipulate that the ownership should move from Mozilla to the Linux Foundation, just as a meme and to see where it gets to?

      Here’s an interesting excerpt:

      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.

      E: fwiw, Firefox built from source is exempt from these terms of use. Forks are also a great option but I wonder if Linux distros will approach this accordingly.

      E2: apparently these ToU only apply when using their chatbot.

        Is there a good guide to doing this yourself? I tried many years ago but didnt get very far.

          Building firefox from source? I’ve never really investigated this but would be happy to learn with you when I get a moment.
