lel, Firefox uses Google Analytics on its about:addons page and disables addons so Privacy Badger or uMatrix can't block it.

Even if Firefox is shit, it's still the best browser in terms of privacy.

>>61335350
It needs 2 VMs with 4 cores and 8GB RAM each so technically you could run it. It could have some contention problems though. You can also run it without Firepower Management Console but you lose a lot of functionality.

Do you understand that it's almost impossible? Chromium source code is huge and it's quite a mess. I heard that they wrote it in c++ like java coders and used libraries for only one function instead of writing it themselves or something like that.

It's basically ungoogled chromium but hardened. So no bother. You do realize chromium was an open source project right? Google has no final power over it's direction.

>Chromium source code is huge and it's quite a mess

You could say that about most programs out there. Linux, OPNsense, FF etc., are all in the millions of loc and you need a huge documentation to get around them. I'm all for supple bare bones code but unfortunately I have no power over how others make software. The situation is what it is. Iridium and Brave are best security/privacy wise atm so that's where I'm going. And no, in case you're wondering, Netrunner will never amount to anything, like every other /g/ project.

that's like saying that mozilla has no say on firefox because ff is an open source project that takes some queues from the community

chromium is developed by google/google developers, the only differences outside of the name/license/trademark issues is that chromium lacks the auto-updater, lacks google specific telemetry, lacks proprietary flash, lacks proprietary codecs and up until very recently lacked a pdf viewer

even worse, it's only on the "Get Add-ons" page which embeds a version of https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ but it only starts to load this if you click away from "Get Add-ons" then click back to it, it doesn't have any analytics the first time you open the addons panel

They are getting BTFO on github:

https://github.com/mozilla/addons-frontend/issues/2785


As I mentioned in #1107: we will not be removing analytics support entirely. It is extremely useful to us and we have already weighed the cost/benefit of using tracking.

That said, I think we should only be enabling tracking for users who have opted-in to sharing their data usage in Firefox. I'd guess respecting the Telemetry checkbox would work. Or maybe having a new checkbox if piggy-backing on that one is problematic from a legal perspective.


Go and express your concerns there, I doubt FX devs read /g/
>>
>>61337763
I don't get the obsession with Google Analytics.
As if interfaces improved after the devs got all the usage stats.
>>
>>61336337
Doesn't matter that it's harmless, if you opt-out you should be left alone. I have full telemetry enabled on my moms PC and zero on mine. I want this to be respected. If clueless people who try or use Firefox would still give them data, why piss off /g/entoomen?
