So, #Mozilla wrote something up to "explain" their #Firefox move. Read it in full here:
https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/information-about-the-new-terms-of-use-and-updated-privacy/m-p/87922/highlight/true#M33705

TLDR? It's bull. Let's dive in?

They focus basically in saying three things:
1) Mozilla needs a license to your data to do things like sending your words to a search engine;
2) there's #AI stuff that needs ToS and Priv. Policy;
3) the acceptable use policy was already in place at Mozilla for the website, etc..

Why bull?
1) if what I type on Firefox (the browser) was sent to Mozilla so they could send it to the search engine, then they'd need access to it. It's not how a browser works or how a privacy-caring browser should ever work. Since what goes on between my Firefox textfields and the browsers I submit to is between us and then, Mozilla should have nothing to do with that data, with or without license.
2) They talk about two kinds of AI: AI services you can access to from Firefox, and AI offline and private abilities within Firefox. For the first, each of those services - if we choose to use them - can and should have their own ToS (distinct from Firefox or any other software used to reach them). AI services running locally should never share anything with anyone, so there's no licenses Mozilla should get.
3) Keep your website's ToS to your website, I don't need it on Firefox - and Mozilla neither.

I forgot to follow up on this one. I ended up ordering the Mac mini M4 just before Christmas, which means I got it on 31 December 2024. The machine is all I thought it will be, so, very happy with it. This time around I am using the "mostly vanilla" approach. That means no iTerm2, but Terminal app, no Chrome, etc., and just a few selected brew applications. Want to keep it lean!

The "official conversation" is happening here:

https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/information-about-the-new-terms-of-use-and-updated-privacy/m-p/87735

There they tell users that "You stay in control". Unfortunately, their new Terms of Use say that:

"Every once in a while, Mozilla may decide to update these Terms. We will post the updated Terms online. We will take your continued use of Firefox as acceptance of such changes."

No matter how common this has become over the past years, this is quite unacceptable, and Firefox users deserve better from Mozilla. The fact that they can unilaterally change the terms and users are automatically bound to them (as soon as they use the browser again - even if they're using it to open the document where they can see the date on the terms!) is not a fair agreement - and works against the claim that "You stay in control".
