No. Maybe don’t just take something that someone you’ve never met on the internet said might be true as fact? Maybe you should fucking Google it.
I mean seriously, the tone of my comment was pretty clear. Do you really need me to explain the connotations of “probably,” and “everything good comes from it”?
I make an off hand comment that is clearly not an attempt to be informative, and you come in all aggressive. Chill the fuck out.
There is: default search results on FF have always legally been sold to Google, the public didn’t know since there were no terms of service or mention by FF whenever they uploaded the android version on the playstore that their users data would be collected and some be sold. Position is one of the data that may be sold as it could be used by Google to dermine which localised version of the search result is the best one to serve
And it’s not going to be Google in the future: it could be Bing, startpage, ecosia, qwant etc… As long as someone pays, then the results are sold and there needs to be a warning to users.
Pot Calling Kettle… etc… 🤣
I know, right, the fucking balls of Google to fucking say this
Because they are legally obligated to mention it?
Are they? What law?
Probably GDPR if I had to guess. Seems like anything decent these companies do can be directly traced back to GDPR.
Edit: guys, “probably” means that I’m unsure.
No GDPR does not require google to display app permissions like that…
Your just making things up.
Do you want the short or the long version?
A link to it will do
Show me where I made something up, boss. Or do you not know what “probably” means?

Do you? Because made up satistics are still made up.
This is how misinformation starts.

…except they don’t for their own browser.
It’s literally there.
This is not at all a pot kettle situation, there is no reason to warn about Firefox.
