/*** [SECTION 8500]: TELEMETRY
|
||||
Arkenfox does not consider Firefox telemetry to be a privacy or security concern - comments below. But
|
||||
since most arkenfox users prefer it disabled for peace of mind, we'll do that rather than cause overrides.
|
||||
|
||||
Opt-out
|
||||
- Telemetry is essential: a browser engine is a _very_ large complex beast costing billions to maintain
|
||||
- Opt-in telemetry _does not_ work and results in data that is unrepresentative and may be misleading
|
||||
Choice
|
||||
- Every new profile on first use provides data collection/use policy and the abillty to opt-out
|
||||
- It can be disabled at any time (Settings>Privacy & Security>Data Collection and Use)
|
||||
Data
|
||||
- no PII (Personally Identifiable Information)
|
||||
- all data can be viewed in about:telemetry
|
||||
- uses Prio [1][2][3], Glean [4], Oblivious HTTP [5][6]
|
||||
|
||||
Firefox code is open source. Mozilla is responsible with opt-out. They are transparent, and they have gone
|
||||
above and beyond in terms of privacy preserving technologies. At this point, if you don't trust Firefox,
|
||||
then why are you using their browser?
|
||||
- not to be confused with holding them to a higher standard and checking browser changes/implementations
