PSA (?): just got this popup in Firefox when i was on an amazon product page. looked into it a bit because it seemed weird and it turns out if you click the big "yes, try it" button, you agree to mandatory binding arbitration with Fakespot and you waive your right to bring a class action lawsuit against them. this is awesome thank you so much mozilla very cool

So, Mozilla adds an AI review features for products you view using Firefox. Other than being very useless, it's T&C are as anti-consumer as it possibly can be. It's like mozilla saying directly "we don't care about your privacy".

Wait, where does it say that Mozilla is the third-party intermediary server?

It doesn't, but when modeling threats we have to go be capabilities and not intentions.

If we're going by capabilities, then your browser maker can already see everything you do in that browser.
