My purpose with this post is not to expose Mozilla, but to show how deep many of us are in this business. I admit I am guilty of similar practices myself.
I think we should use this privacy crisis to stop and rethink what are we gathering about our users, how are we doing it, can we really guarantee their privacy in our countries and on technological platforms we use.
If you really care about your users, think before gathering any of their data. It may end up somewhere you or they do not want.
You should point that out in your article. You should also point out the fact that you are using multiple 3rd party services that are far more questionable then what Mozilla uses on your page, allowing them to track your readers.

That's all well and good, but the article doesn't reflect that in the least.
I think so. At least I would like to have added "please" at the end.
I am sorry. My only excuse is that my two kids were running around disturbing my ability to focus.
BTW: I am a big fan and a user of what you do. I think Firefox OS is one of the technologies that will help us reclaim some of our freedoms and privacy back.
