This “You may not upload, download, transmit, display, or grant access to content that includes graphic depictions of sexuality or violence” looks like pure madness. An online reproductive biology course is going to feature depictions of sexuality; we're not allowed to bookmark university courses with Pocket now? Many movies explore sex and violence; syncing my Netflix password with Firefox Sync, let alone streaming through “their” VPN technically “grants me access” to that. Hell, even bookstores feature “content that included graphic depictions” of all sorts of sex and violence. What kind of stone-age regression to puritanical fundamentalism is happening inside Mozilla for them to come up with this nonsense!?

Btw, anyone subscribed to Mozilla VPN should know it's just Mullvad VPN sold at twice the price.

Where are you getting that from? Its not on the linked firefox terms of use, or on the linked mozzilla account terms of service.
