But which browser?

The writing is on the wall . :-(
FF respects your privacy...by slurping data and passing it onto 3rd parties > yes its started .

""Users who receive a version of Firefox with Cliqz will have their browsing activity sent to Cliqz servers......."
Sure , that was only Germany, but its a real indication of whats to come , their new attitude .
And having opt in as defaults ... when data slurping etc should ALLWAYS be opt out by default

Perhaps Tor Browser ?

Mind you I'm not up to anything 'spooky' :D

It's hidden in about:config gary

1443864 2017-12-20 06:15:00 Hmmm, you appear to be right Gary, no sign of it in FF on Windows.
Makes me wonder what the hell Mozilla are up to.
Unless they have already removed it from Windows after the negative reaction they are trying to deal with?

1443865 2017-12-20 06:44:00 FF 57 . 0 . 1?

From what I've read, FF has pulled that out of the latter FF 57 downloads/updates anyway .

You may have been spared .

For those who are not so-spared - can't one just double click and change the boolean to TRUE and set it off that way?

Just wondering .

1443866 2017-12-20 06:52:00 I think it was mainly rolled out to people in the USA, and Linux users here may have got it as well.
Have checked a Windows machine here and no sign of it.

I don't even know what this show is about, they can eff off.

1443867 2017-12-20 06:57:00 Cr@p! I would want all the Upsidedown Landers to be as mistreated as those of us in the Rightsideup World.

Not fair!
