Re: Mozilla New Privacy Intiative

[Wladimir Palant aka AdblockPlus] Can Mozilla be trusted with privacy?
quote:
A year ago I would have certainly answered the question in the title with “yes.” After all, who else if not Mozilla? Mozilla has been living the privacy principles which we took for the Adblock Plus project and called our own. “Limited data” is particularly something that is very hard to implement and defend against the argument of making informed decisions.

But maybe I’ve simply been a Mozilla contributor way too long and don’t see the obvious signs any more. My colleague Felix Dahlke brought my attention to the fact that Mozilla is using Google Analytics and Optimizely (trusted third parties?) on most of their web properties. I cannot really find a good argument why Mozilla couldn’t process this data in-house, insufficient resources certainly isn’t it.
