Firefox to Track User Data?

By | May 14, 2008 | 8 Comments

How does it sound? I’ll start with a quote from John’s Blog which should explain everything:

Collects & shares data in a way that embodies the user control & privacy options which are at Mozilla’s core.
Enables everyone — from individual researchers and entrepreneurs (both the social and capitalist types) to the largest organizations in the world — to take usage data, mix it up, mash it up, derive insight, and hopefully share some of that insight with others.
