Relevant recent announcement by Mozilla regarding their acquisition of an e-commerce product/review scoring "AI" service, with the intent to integrate it into the core Firefox browser: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/fakespot-joins-mozilla-f...

Mozilla will be algorithmically profiling you and your actions on covered platforms, and if it ever decides you are a fraud or invalid for some reason, it very conveniently advertise this accusation to all its users by default. Whether you will be able to sell your stuff or have your expressed opinion of a product be appreciated and heard by Firefox users will be in Mozilla's hands.

A fun fact that serves to show what these companies are willing to throw overboard just to gain the smallest of edges, or perhaps simply to display relevance by participating in the latest trends: the original company's business strategy was essentially Mozilla's Manifesto in reverse, and included such things as selling all collected data to all third parties (at least their policies openly admitted to this). The person behind all that is now employed by Mozilla, the privacy proponent.
