ALL of the anti-Firefox shills can go fuck themselves in this thread, every last one of you. Easy way to disable:

"Firefox users who don't use Get Add-ons can disable the functionality in the following way:

1. Load about:config?filter=extensions.webservice.discoverURL
2. Double-click on the preference, and remove all characters so that the value is blank.
3. Restart Firefox."

It's that simple...

I bet NONE of these "concerned" privacy advocates (aka shills) even have a librebooted thinkpad and are freaking out over a STUPID little script that does very little to affect their privacy and can be disabled with two clicks, while at the same time their proprietary BIOS and the Intel ME/AMD PSP are LITERALLY raping their system from top to bottom and selling their data and privacy to the highest bidder along with every single five eyes ALPHABET agency out there. Fuck all of you shills, go to hell.

>>61354755
REEEEEEEEEEEE, there's nothing to fix. It's a script that uses anonymized data for a page showing add-ons that most power users don't even use. Disable it if you think it's malicious in some way. The burden of proof is on these shills to show that something bad is happening here, and as of now, NO PROOF has been presented that that is the case.

>>61355049
There's literally nothing to use anymore. You just have to de-botnet yourself as much as possible. Firefox is the lesser of the evils, I suppose.

>>61354923
>>61354991
Go fuck yourself, both of you. I'm not paid a dime by anyone. I'm simply pointing out that this is a nonissue because A) the script can be disabled in about 3 seconds, even for an autistic retard like you, and B) no evidence has been presented that the script has violated anyone's privacy. Most power users don't use that page because it's so fucking stupid. It's only something normies click on.

Welp. Time to switch to Chrome.

>>61355049
>>61355080
HOLY SHIT!!! JUST DISABLE THE STUPID ADDON PAGE

>>61354683
The fact that you can avoid it doesn't make it okay though. If Firefox is advertised as a privacy-focused browser, Google Analytics should simply not interfere with it at all, never.

Googly analytics is turned on by default you stupid faggot and the Addons page is something most users visit.

Privacy should be opt-out not opt-in. The fact that we are having this discussion in 2017 tells me you are either a retard or a Firefox shill.

>>61355385
Fuck off, you're the retard shill hating on the last mainstream browser that actually places privacy and user freedom above all else. The addon page is not needed to install addons and most power users avoid it anyways. Simply disable the page in about:config if your autism level is that high. NO EVIDENCE has been presented that the GA script violates anyones privacy. FF has already released a statement saying that the data is anonymized and not linked to individual users.

>>61355269
It's on one anonymous page that can be disabled.

>>61355444

This is not sufficient for a browser that claims to be the hallmark of privacy.

>>61355791
So, there is no way to know what info about me is Firefox sending to Google?

You know every website including 4chan is running GA anyway

I want to know if this is on icecat

>>61355852
>You know every website including 4chan is running GA anyway

What's your fucking point?

I can right click on any of those website and see that NoScript is blocking GA

I can't right click on the FF Add-ons page and do the same

Don't really care about it. But I've been genuinely considering switching to a different browser.

Firefox frequently stutters or freezes youtube/twitch videos when I'm watching them with my resolution set to 4k, even if the video resolution is set to 1080.
Every other time I try to drag and drop highlighted text into a search box it either doesn't let me drag at all or drags some invisible copy of a captcha I solved hours ago.
And every now and then if I'm checking email through it, it doesn't let me click in the scroll wheel to open links in a new tab.

And its just firefox, and It does it with addons, without addons, on a fresh install, on a new profile, etc...

Its really starting to not be worth the effort, especially since the only addon I use is an ad blocker and its not like other browsers don't have that option.

>>61353155

ye they did, not only does google now know that one person using this ip address is using a certain firefox version, but also what addons its using and their versions too. sharing that info with 3rd parties that want to abuse a certain 0day comes at a high price im sure, but there is nothing preventing it from happening (besides some sjwzilla damage controlling online)

>>61356156
Give users the encryption keys of the communications that happens between Google and a Firefox instance and let users audit what kind of info is sent to Google at any given time. If you fail to do this, you cannot guarantee that the said data is anonymized or innocent in nature. There is a clear problem with Firefox right now, which is tightly related to Mozilla's financial struggle. For situations like this, developers make their software open source and forkable, and for this very situation, this is the exact required action. Firefox needs to be forked and be freed from Mozilla's organizational problems and instead, serve as a tool for privacy minded people. You should go ahead and fuck yourself. I will treat Firefox and Chrome as the same in nature, because in fact, they are.

It's still less botnet than the alternatives, which integrate botnet as a feature, and which prevent you from configuring settings like websockets. It's also less SJW than Google - all major companies are SJW, so not a valid argument. Pic related, SJWChrome - enjoy!

Firefox is still the best, safest, freedom-respecting, and most configurable browser there is - just look at the controversy and discussion this debacle has sparked, and realize such discussion is nowhere to be found on proprietary botnet browsers, nor on Chromium which is a Google product.
The shills and/or retards in these threads are disgusting.

This was just an oversight. The guy already said several times that they will remove Google Analytics for those users who don't want it, either through Do Not Track or by creating a bind between the tracking options and the page.
Oh, and this only happens if you click "Get More Addons" inside the menu. This doesn't happen if you look at your installed addons or if you load addons.mozilla.org manually.

As has been stated several times already, this was an oversight.

It's just a sad fact, but there's a difference between giving our free jobs to totally-not-qualified individuals based on their race/gender (to be shuffled into the front for maximum optics, but kept away from the code), and actively damaging what is good about their products. For the sake of corporate diversity.

Cart before the horse, they call it? You become diverse after becoming successful as a PR MOVE, you don't become diverse to become a good company.

>The shills and/or retards in these threads are disgusting.
when a company puts more focus on making "social movement & inclusion" advertisements and yet ends up deprecating a whole bunch of platforms and usage scenarios just because they are """hard""" to test (nice inclusion there, i guess public buildings should just delete ramps cause they fuck up the plans for the front entry and not that many people use them anyways) while at the same time deprecating the very last thing that made the product great in the first place (xul, v57 is going to be """"""""great"""""""") even after the users have voiced their opinion on the matter (and not just the end users but the developers that help keep the product ecosystem alive and well), and then getting all their """new employees""" to join forces in an internet task force to defend themselves instead of admitting guilt and fixing their shit, it permanently looses all respect it had

(You) must be retarded if you think this is what happened. Mozilla didn't "out" Eich for "thought crimes", if that was the case, he wouldn't have been promoted to CEO in the first place you retard.

Firefox ESR has no such problem and is botnet free.

"Stepped down"

SJWFox know no limits for retardation.

So what you're saying is he only stepped down because SJWs who run websites were attempting to get him fired for thought crimes?

I not believe you that actual websites started giving 404s to Firefox User-Agents, but if that's true, that's even worse.

Fired for thought crimes.

>>61358250
Very proud of you, I hope you're excited for next week's youtube video promotion why you should get a black wife and finding a white wife is racist.

>>61358279
As if SJWFox were better, I hope it dies, I already warned the people I know and now is droped.

>>61356255
underrated

>>61358319
You're comparing a browser with 10% market share to a tech giant that has a browser with the largest majority and multiple means of spreading propaganda be it youtube or their google search. Google is inherently more evil because of the sheer difference in size.

>>61358366
Only 10%? So glad is dying.

>>61358126
Yet Mozilla acknowledged in their official webpage that those employees were only a handful, never worked or knew Eich directly and that media was blowing their tweets out of proportion to make it seem like it was the company's (or most of it's employees) desire to fire him.

You have NO proof that he was fired and all the proof against it. It is up to you to be rational human being, or keep spouting "SJW cucks XDDD" like a retard.

>>61358499
The level of cognitive dissonance must be tough to handle. I bet he was in those threads last month angry at google when google was promoting fag rights videos because it was pride month.

>>61358499
He was fired, the evidence is there, they listened some SJW employees, they are in charge now, hense, is SJWFox.

>>61358275
Yes, several pages like OkCupid blocked Firefox users and told them to use Chrome, instead. Other ones like Buzzfeed showed a banner: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/okcupid-blocks-firefox-users-over-mozilla-ceo-brendan-eichs-anti-gay-stance-1442835


This all happened right after Mozilla said publicly that they wouldn't fire Eich, that the media was blowing shit out of proportion and that Mozilla doesn't care about it's employees' personal beliefs.

Let's see:
https://arstechnica.com/business/2014/03/mozilla-employees-to-brendan-eich-step-down/
>Within minutes, many other Mozilla employees followed suit, using similar language or copying each other's statements outright. Those included Mozilla Festival curatorChloe Vareldi, partnerships leadJohn Bevan, designerJessica Klein, and engagement team memberSydney Moyer.
None of the Twitter idiots had or have important roles inside the company. In fact, Ars only mentioned the ones with "important" charges, and even then half of them aren't working at Mozilla currently.

You're full of shit. If Mozilla wanted yo fire him they would have done so in 2009 instead of promoting him to CEO, refusing publicly to fire him and then posting this in their official website: https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/04/05/faq-on-ceo-resignation

>>61358684
Nice try to rewrite the history, Brendan didnt want to resing but it was pressured by the board, they even released a public statement apologising for not acting sooner for fuck sakes.

Fuck SJWFox, I hope it dies painfully.

>A) the script can be disabled in about 3 seconds, even for an autistic retard like you,
You have to know about it to be able to disable it. I literally only just found out about this, and I've been using Firefox for 10 years. This is very concerning. What else should I know about?
>and B) no evidence has been presented that the script has violated anyone's privacy.
Does it matter? There is no evidence that it isn't doing it either. But it is very capable of doing so. Imagine you put a piece of candy on your kitchen counter, and tell your son not to eat it. You leave for 5 minutes, come back, and the candy is gone. Your son says "you cannot prove that i ate it". Sure, you cannot prove it. But would you trust him?
>Most power users don't use that page because it's so fucking stupid. It's only something normies click on.
But that's the bad thing. Wait, am i being baited?

I cannot comprehend why you idiots aren't using the best browser out there, Comodo Dragon.
>Chrome fork, so fast as fuck
>Badass logo
>Not connected to the Google Botnet
>Added security features

It is literally the perfect browser, I'm not even shitposting it is Chrome without any connections to Google. You want something that's fast and secure? Comodo Dragon.

A note to all users following the discussion here:

We shipped a hotfix to the Add-ons Websites today and now respect Do Not Track on the Mozilla Add-ons Website and about:addons. See: #2792 and mozilla/addons-server#5901 for the relevant issues). This will affect any browser that visits https://discovery.addons.mozilla.org/ with the Do Not Track flag set (that includes Tor Browser).

You can disable Google Analytics in about:addons by setting your Do Not Track status to on.

Again: this only affects users who visit the page with Tracking Protection on (which automatically enables DNT) or who manually set their DNT status to on. This was the fastest and most straightforward way to ship a fix to this issue and it is now in production without requiring a browser update.

Thanks a lot to those at Mozilla who helped get these patches reviewed, landed, and on production in less than a day's turnaround.

>>61353585
Tried this and nothing shows up for me, even if I switch to Get Add-ons tab, Firefox v54. What's up with that?

>>61361936
Why wasn't Mozilla honoring "Do not track" in the first place?

>>61361936
Looks like the issue is resolved. Now all the shills can go back to the AMD threads.

Bebepspsensips

>>61362076
Oversight. The Analytics thing was blocked by both addons and tracking protection, but since the page inside about:addons technically loaded inside an about:*, it wasn't.
This wasn't a problem with addons.mozilla.org, it was a problem with the way it was implemented in the about:page. An oversight.

>>61353585
>>61361963
Because it's not in the add-on configuration (but the haters would like you to think so), it was only on the "Get Addons" tab and it was an oversight.

This. And FF already fixed the issue today.

>>61364393
Nope, it's still there unless they changed it in the past hour. Just turn off DNT and check.

>>61355211

Except they lied about how the platform was going to work and I lost all respect. They originally billed so that you could enable ads and it would put money in your wallet you could then pass on to sites you wanted to support. Now it's only you add the funds
