@argv_minus_one @ryanleesipes It actually did have to happen, du to regulator pressures. How it was done isn’t good, IMO, but they did have to add terms of use.
@thelinuxEXP @argv_minus_one @ryanleesipes FWIW, these changes make Firefox not really a viable option anymore in the current political environment, independent of whether the changes "had to happen."
Such a big change should merit reconsideration of the contract with google rather than the drastic widening of TOS on behalf of all users (esp considering one of the first things I do is disable google as the default search engine).
