Mozilla you are corrupted by Google

[Winterbolt]

connect.mozilla.org connects to www.google-analytics.com and www.google-tagmanager.com
addons.mozilla.org connects to www.google-analytics.com and www.google-tagmanager.com

firefox uses google as default search engine which is how mozilla makes most of their income.

using another search engine in firefox is easy, disabling google safe browsing is easy, but on your addons website and this BS forum there is NO OPT OUT to google analytics and tagmanager.

go to hell.

hello Winterbolt, i kindly ask you to not talk **bleep** in areas you are not educated in. Pages can use GA or GTM for various purpouses. Check what info these connections carry and you will see 😉 Also i could not reproduce your issue but i have add-on's so might be what is preventing the connections.

Edit:

I disabled all extensions and now i see the POST requests i presume you are screaming about. It is blocked by firefox... And i checked the data for you, it is a mark, that me, as some connect user, visited this page (see the dl parameter). Good luck identifying me with this information. XD

If mozilla gave a sh!t about privacy they would not use google analytics and tagmanager its that simple.

There is no blabla that can justify any connection to google, either you are against tracking or you dont.

Anyway we can closw this topic and continue in the other thread.

I was right wondering why here on Mozilla Connect I see a tracking item. Since Firefox cares about privacy as main goal it's weird to see this 👇. By what I know, this wasn't here some months ago. Or maybe I simply never noticed it 😄.

But I'll trust what tigo wrote (I don't have any experience on how tracking items work 🤷), even though I don't like having Google stuff in the way all the time 😒. Fortunately, it can be blocked 😁.
