Today, we’re unveiling Anonym Private Audiences: a confidential computing solution allowing advertisers to securely build new audiences and boost campaign results.
Today I’m unveiling (again) my long-held position that any and all advertising on my PC is a potential security threat and will be dealt with accordingly.
I will also unveil (again) my co-opted position on marketing, courtesy of Bill Hicks (skip to 1:30).
The parasite is getting brazen… Using FF forks is a must.
Mozilla lost their fucking minds and the good will it had with me.
Marketing is cancer and parasites doing it must be denied engagement and profit.
May st. luigi bless them all for their evil deeds.
“we have really listened this time” yeah, no
They didn’t actually say that fyi, OP added it.
Why do they continue to want to shove ads down their users throat? I use FF so uBlock Origin works and can block everything that annoys me…
Why do they continue to want to shove ads down their users throat?
Because the Google gravy train is going away.
Anonym Private Audiences is currently in closed beta, supporting early-use cases where privacy matters most.
Wow that really is private! So private we can’t even see what it’s up to.
Differential “privacy,” based on what I’ve learned, seems to be a joke. The only thing it does effectively is hide the fact you’ve disabled it, if you choose to disable it. But if other people disable it, it becomes easier to identify you. The best move is to not participate, which should encourage other people to also not participate…
And if you’re one of the unlucky few people still using it, its developers basically need to choose where on a sliding scale from “anonymous” to “useful” they want to start collecting your data. And there is every prerogative for them to push towards “useful” and away from “anonymous.”
It operates separately, and is not integrated with, our flagship Firefox browser.
Doubt…
Look it’s Pocket 2.0. More stuff you have to turn off in about:config. Great!
I’m happy to unveil that ive fully moved off FF and onto various forks of it.
Can you imagine how great software would be if we had UBI? No one would need advertising money to stay viable, and every developer could just make whatever they wanted or what felt important to them.
Confidential computing solution. That sounds an awful lot like an oxymoron.

Like all the other times, they haven’t listened.
After thinking about it I think this has actually nothing to do with Firefox (yet), but with the ad platform they bought. Might absolutely end up in Firefox in some way, but this blog post is not about that…
