Mozilla Firefox's New Terms of Service Raises Eyebrows: Overreach on User Data?
2025-02-27
Mozilla recently updated Firefox's terms of service, adding a clause granting Mozilla a royalty-free license to use information uploaded or input through Firefox. This sparked community concern over excessive user data access. The article compares Mozilla's terms with those of other browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari, etc.), revealing Mozilla's as significantly broader, extending to all user activity, even on local networks. The author questions the necessity and potential legal risks, highlighting privacy concerns. While Mozilla claims it's for legal protection, the author argues the clause doesn't effectively prevent lawsuits and might worsen privacy anxieties.
