Given its in-court defense of Google, Mozilla is clearly complicit and its products should be boycotted. It's a shame it's the only alternative to Chromium, but I'm perfectly fine with the US government cracking down on Google, no matter the consequences for Firefox. The monopoly must be disrupted for the benefit of every internet user.

they changed their ToS to allow themselves to collect some anonymous user data, no idea if they've started

the waterfox and librewolf are still safe

i have done some research and they are not very specific about what data they are collecting, will they collect users password/bookmarks? i thought sync is encrypted and server is impossible to decrypt user's data? so what data are they collecting exactly?

I don't think they've started collecting data but they might in the future.
