Mozilla responds to backlash over new terms, saying it's not using people's data for AI | TechCrunch
Briefly

Mozilla responded to user concerns about its new Firefox Terms of Use, which faced backlash for broad language suggesting it could claim rights to user data. The company clarified that these terms are not a change in their data practices, but rather an effort to formalize their relationship with users and enhance transparency. In response to confusion, they've amended their communications to ensure users know that Mozilla does not claim ownership of their data. Critics have expressed concerns about the potential implications of the wording used in the agreement.
"We tried to make these easy to read and understand - there shouldn't be any surprises in how we operate or how our product works."
