  • Everyone’s up in arms about a literal anonymous counter, but the other option is the current “spy on everything you do”

    How is Mozilla getting flak for this outside of a few hardcore nerds that are welcome to use chrome if they so desire…

    And I say that as a huge privacy advocate. In the local tin foil hat “privacy matters” nerd and I honestly don’t see the problem.

    And quite frankly anyone that’s said it’s a problem has only been able to come up with “it shouldn’t help them count your views “ which is ridiculous, because it’s very anonymous.

    Sooo …. Help me out here, what’s the issue?
