I’m no lawyer, but after reading the new Terms of Service my assumption was they were talking about their integrated online services like Firefox Suggest, Pocket, Mozilla Sync, Relay, Monitor, Mozilla VPN, Weather, Anonym PPA, and Mozilla AI. All of which are optional.

Mozilla issued a statement today on the TOS clarifying:

“It does NOT give us ownership of your data or a right to use it for anything other than what is described in the Privacy Notice.”

I think they need to issue another statement clarifying that the TOS *only* applies to their optional integrated online services. I mean, logically, that *must* be what they’re talking about, right? Things you send to their servers by using their services? But they really *really* need to specify that! Because if that’s *not* what they mean, then, yeah, these terms are unacceptable.

The TOS reads badly, like their lawyers used AI to write it.

Mozilla Clarifies Firefox Data Collection With New Terms of Use

It would be helpful to have *more* clarification, though.
