You don’t need to take their word for it, it’s open source and has a lot of eyes on it.
That isn’t doing nothing for privacy. That’s absurd. It’s a private alternative. Therefore it’s a good move for privacy.
They want to know who you are and what you do so they can sort you in categories and show you specific ads based on those. That’s the service ad networks sell to advertisers. So, tracking as usual will continue.
That’s not what this is. Neither Mozilla, nor anybody else, has any data tied to you. You cannot be tracked with this.
Mozilla’s model would only “do something for privacy” if it replaced what we have today. Not if it just ran alongside the others. That’s not absurd, it’s reality.

That’s the kind of data companies like Meta and Google (I’m sure among others I don’t know) track and use to sell ads today . That is their entire business model. And they will not stop it of their own free will for an alternative that gives them less useful data than they had before.
Mozilla’s model does nothing for privacy unless legislation forces companies to quit the current more invasive kind of tracking. But if it did that, we would have won and wouldn’t need Mozilla’s model either.
And it can’t replace what we have today if it doesn’t exist. Therefore it existing is a good thing and a positive move for privacy.

No shit.

Yes, as I have already stated, Mozilla should be pushing governments to enforce privacy respecting and models.
They have made a privacy respecting option, and you are angry with them because others are still hoovering up your data. It’s a dumb take.
