WTF @librewolf - you had only one job and you are failing in it.

"No telemetry" -> first thing Librewolf does is connect to Mozilla telemetry services.

Found out this by having @littlesnitch@mastodon.obdev installed.

It's still opt-in by default, but as I said:

They do not use google analytics anymore
You get a text saying how to opt-out when installing before anything is send to their analytic server

They are also very transparent on what is send. That's actually not that bad.
