Yes, but we're talking legalese here, not common sense, so I don't want to make any assumptions 😅

Yeah I meant the latter - you visit the Amazon website, and then your IP address is shared with them. I have no idea how broad these legal clauses are, and it could be that there's a need to (legally) guard against even that.
Could it be e.g. the sponsored tiles on the new tab? If you click those, the sponsor inevitably gets your IP address and thus your approximate location, and Mozilla gets paid.
The ToS hasn't gone into effect yet, so it would be postponing rather than rolling back. One thing that hasn't been answered yet, though, is why this change is needed now - possibly, there's a legal reason why postponing isn't an option?
Firefox already has ads. (Though you can turn them off.) As does its default search engine.
Yeah, specifics would be great. "Someone clicked this ad", or potentially even "someone in Germany clicked this ad" is a big difference from "a 20-year old man who likes blahaj in Hamburg has opened a new tab".
I feel like it would've been really helpful if it had provided an example of something that legally counts as "selling your data", but that any sane person would not define as such.
It's suspicious, because you think those tomatoes have dairy or meat in them?
Zen Browser and Floorp. Of course, as soon as a project does more, that also makes maintenance more work, so they're more likely to be less well-maintained.
And of course, none of them can exist without Mozilla.
Hij is net weer bijgewerkt, en het lijkt er idd op dat zelfs de PVV een klein beetje begint weg te zakken, waar de andere coalitiepartijen dat al eerder deden. Maar de grote verandering zit vooral nog bij NSC.
Dat partijen subsidie krijgen op basis van hun ledenaantal, dus doe het! Je kunt zelfs lid worden van meerdere partijen, hoewel soms de partijen zelf statuten hebben die dat verbieden.
Qua welke partij, is de belangrijkste overweging daarbij of ik het in het algemeen met de visie van de leden van die partij eens ben - zelfde overweging als bij verkiezingen, dus.
