A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I haven't read through the issue, but so far all of Mozilla's endeavours into ads have been stellar privacy-wise.

And their CEO stepped back a few weeks ago. It's well possible that the intermediary/new CEO won't get as much payment, because losing them to a competitor will not hurt as badly.
