Ctrl+F "open source", "free software": 0 results

In contrast with the (single) mention of open-source on Mozilla's website that the BBC article cites: https://www.mozillafoundation.org/en/nothing-personal/period...

These articles are always so vague, never explaining the difference between proprietary and free software, and even treating sending data to company servers as some kind of acceptable default, only raising privacy alarms when the data is also sent (directly) to some 3rd party server. As if that makes any difference once the company has your data - they can sell it to whoever themselves.
