said by gattaca:I don't understand how people here are assuming the right to free, supported and maintained software like Firefox. Of course they need some revenue in order to keep the operation afloat. If you don't like it:
(1) opt-out
(2) use a forked project (K-Meleon, Camino, Seamonkey...)
(3) BUY (gasp!) a product that doesn't need to find alternative sources of revenue (Opera)
(4) stat worrying about much bigger issues than anonymous usage data. I don't see how this is any worse than the "threat" posed by cookies.
1. It is supposed to be opt-IN.
