WTH, Mozilla ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
Also, fuck you, dude:
One Mozilla developer claimed that explaining PPA would be too challenging, so they had to opt users in by default.
IMO that just means they barely understand it themselves. Anyone that understands something with an amount of proficiency can explain it to a ~~child~~ layman and it'll make sense, given they don't use technical nomenclature.
*Layman is a better term. Children are... complicated.
The difficulty is in spinning it to sound non invasive. And of course takes a level of self corruption to even want to do that, since PPA is invasive and you have to delude yourself into thinking otherwise.
