This is a link to a diff of Firefox where the FAQ are stored in a structured way. In the diff it can be seen that the question “Does Firefox sell your personal data?” has been removed:

        {  
            "@type": "Question",  
            "name": "Does Firefox sell your personal data?",  
            "acceptedAnswer": {  
                "@type": "Answer",  
                "text": "Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from  
                        many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed  
                        to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "  
            }  
        },  

People in the comments are asking if the definition of the word “neven” has been changed or what’s going on.

    This is what happens when you spend millions a year to get a fucking MBA or a lawyer as your CEO.

    Should we fire the CEO to keep the workers and advocacy as intact as possible now that Google might be pulling out finding? Nah, let’s do mass layoffs, enshittify a supposed non-profit and keep the mfs that put us here in the first place.

    Trust is extremely fragile and fleeting. Looks like Mozilla dropped it on the ground and it shattered into million pieces. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted. So long and thanks for all the fish.

      Fakespot and Firefox are different products. They should stay that way.

      It’s fine that Fakespot needs to collect some data from users to do the thing it does, and probably necessary for it to monetize that data to have a sustainable funding model. I don’t want it to sell a profile about me to advertising partners, so I don’t use it.

      Firefox can function as a web browser without transferring any information about me off my local machine except that which I explicitly tell it to send to specific websites.
