PSA (?): just got this popup in Firefox when i was on an amazon product page. looked into it a bit because it seemed weird and it turns out if you click the big "yes, try it" button, you agree to mandatory binding arbitration with Fakespot and you waive your right to bring a class action lawsuit against them. this is awesome thank you so much mozilla very cool

So, Mozilla adds an AI review features for products you view using Firefox. Other than being very useless, it's T&C are as anti-consumer as it possibly can be. It's like mozilla saying directly "we don't care about your privacy".

That's not the privacy policy.

The FakeSpot privacy policy is right here. No mention of anonymization when they sell data to ad brokers.

Regarding OHTTP: It's a CDN proxy with a pinkie promise. I trust their partnership with Firefox as much as I trust them with Google: not much.

With OHTTP, [Google] Safe Browsing does not see your IP address, and your Safe Browsing checks are mixed amongst those sent by other Chrome users,” Google affirms

I am aware its not the privacy policy, i have read through the privacy policy, however the fact that the info get proxied through and anonymised on fastly's servers counts for something

In OP's screenshot, you are only going to agree to Mozilla's privacy policy and FakeSpot's TOS. So the FakeSpot's privacy policy is not involved.

And if you had actually read the FakeSpot TOS:
