    Edit: They claim they will make that part open source too, eventually, and it is due to behavior of another browser: https://github.com/Floorp-Projects/Floorp-core/issues/62

    Edit 2: They just open sourced the private repository 7 minutes ago, 2024-03-24T12:39Z

      I hear and understand you. There’s absolutely no way you should just blindly accept Telemetry. But there are companies that deserve your faith until they fuck up. Mozilla is one of them. It’s also worth noting that they only keep Telemetry data for 1 year: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/telemetry-clientid#:~:text=Firefox collects telemetry data by,interaction data and technical data.

            The link always works but doesn’t navigate to the text fragment. Not until October’s Firefox 131, at least.
