Terms of Use: Fed up with Facebook data slurping? Firefox has a cunning plan

Fed up with Facebook data slurping? Firefox has a cunning plan • The Register: "In a blog post, Nick Nguyen, Mozilla's VP of Firefox Product, says, "As a user of the internet, you deserve a voice and should be able to use the internet on your own terms."

It's an ironic choice of words since it's common to browse the internet under someone else's terms – the terms of service asserted by internet sites that disavow user privacy.

Veteran observers of this space may recall Facebook openly abandoned any pretense of privacy in 2011 when it replaced its Privacy Policy with a Data Use Policy." 'via Blog this'
