Check that issue again. Before you posted this they agreed and pushed the issue to the add-ons team. Do not track should turn off Analytics.

But that's not my point. As I said, they could well be wrong, but it's over the top to argue that it's Mozilla's fault for disclosing this in the privacy policy (which apparently no one reads). If you are so privacy conscious that this bothers you that much, the privacy policy should be required reading.

No, this is something that by law I have to be informed about. And Mozilla has a reputation of working for their users, so I actually trusted them.

I do agree with you after this, the trust was misplaced, Mozilla is not any better than Google, NSA, MfS/Stasi or GeStaPo, just not giving a single fuck about privacy, but I did trust them before this, and so did many others.

In fact, people only used Mozilla products because of this trust.

There goes yet another example of Goodwin's law in action, but I'm not so glad for the arguably rash, overly emotional, and definitely not balanced analogy.
