There's a new "experimental feature" being tested in Firefox 83: sponsored sites in the URL bar.

"Mozilla works with advertising partners to place sponsored tiles on the Firefox home page (or New Tab) that would be useful to Firefox users. Mozilla is paid when users click on sponsored tiles."

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/sponsor-privacy

You can disable this by setting `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSponsoredTopSites` to `false`.

WTF @Patreon is that an acceptable list of permissions just to verify my patreon name? Read all my tweets including the private one, access my contacts, follow or unfollow people for me, write or delete tweets with my account... the list isn't even over! No, hell no! #privacy

WTF Patreon
Is that an acceptable list of permissions just to verify my patreon name?

Read all my tweets including the private one, access my contacts, follow or unfollow people for me, write or delete tweets with my account... the list isn't even over! No, hell no!

Let's do a bad buzz here, shall we? Retweet this: (as patreon is obviously not on mastodon)

Since yesterday the #EFF 's #Privacy Badger #Chrome #extension has inexplicably gone into paranoid mode where all the third-party domains on pages I visit are blocked by default, and I'm not even mad, it's amazing.


#wire was sold to a US holding and updated their #privacy policy without informing their users. #deletewire
