If a revenue stream breaks just with one browser, deny access of this browser.

This obv. would render firefox impractical over time and therefore irrelevant.

Yes, there are free websites and apps. But you may have to ask yourself why or how these sites keep going.

So while yes - ads can be shown - the user decides if he wants to engage further with the site at hand.

There are ad blockers as plugins for firefox.

My point is: We shouldnt point at mozilla and blame them. They try to align interests I suppose. And I trust them with the anonymous data - I could even check it within its sources if I wanted.
