Today, I noticed that Google wasn’t loading on Mull (Firefox Fork). Switching useragent with the extension Chameleon makes the page load again.

    Google is literally the default firefox search engine.

      I think the average Firefox user is smart enough to change the search engine… And disable Mozilla’s telemetry… And just not use stock Firefox…

        That is wildly optimistic

        Why would I disable Mozilla’s telemetry though?

          Because it is a privacy issue. Turning it off won’t turn off all telemetry though. You need to get into the weeds or use librewolf.

          Also make sure you turn off “experiments”, enable scrict mode, I stall ublock origin, and change the search engine.

            How is it a privacy issue? Reading their information page on telemetry data, they don’t collect personal data except for temporary collection of the IP address, which gets deleted every 14 days. Do they collect more than they claim?

              There information page will just tell you what you want to here. Look at Firefoxs network access and you should see it still try to reach out.

        All of the people I convinced to make the switch would agree with you
