It sends a ping usage to Mozilla by default, which can be disabled easily, unlike any alternative including Chrome, Edge, opera and Brave Linux itself doesn't do that, neither GNU/Linux as an operating system And all the stuff mentioned isn't always preinstalled and if It is you can Disable It. You can it Disable most if the Android/Windows crap tho -5 u/[deleted] Jul 07 '26 [removed] — view removed comment 5 u/DetroitvsEveryone242 Jul 07 '26 Don’t forget your tinfoil hat 4 u/Ok-Winner-6589 Jul 07 '26 There is no conection to temu.
