Mozilla unveils $4.99/month subscription-based VPN, says it won't hang onto user logs

Re: Advertised VPNs?

The entire reason that Mozilla is doing a VPN is a) for money to support the mission and b) because money can be made in privacy. It's not a forgiving market, so it's a fraught product. But, Mozilla has an actual mission and is not-for-profit. If there was a catch, Mozilla would be making a lot more money in general

Re: Advertised VPNs?

That wasn't willy-nilly data sharing. That was a constrained experiment with a partner that had a beginning and an end. Hell, I think Mozilla *paid* Cliqz for that. The data wasn't sold *to* Cliqz

Re: Advertised VPNs?

When has Mozilla done that, historically speaking?

Mozilla's Social add-on MERGES Facebook with Firefox

Re: Funny thing...

That's the thing: This is a Social API built into Firefox, and Facebook is just the first site to use it. You can activate it for other sites if / when they support it - or never turn it on for any site ever.

Re: To try it out, you must first make sure ...

So... don't turn it on. It doesn't come enabled out of the box.
