The other day I was using firefox on a public. On my computer creating a new tab creates a blank tab, but this one it showed ‘Suggested by Firefox’. One of the links was interesting, so I clicked on it. Would this be considered user data that would be sold? Some clarification from Mozilla about what constitutes selling user data would be great.

    1. The fact that you use firefox == data

    2. You telling me == transfer

    3. I like your post == consideration

    I’m sure some laws would considering you making this post or me writing this comment as “selling” data.

    Anything that a company is doing that makes them remove “we won’t sell your data” from their TOS counts as selling data as far as I’m concerned.
