I probably say this too much too, but it feels like just a justification to keep using shiny Chrome. Even though the recent ToS fiasco basically had the same language as Chrome's ToS, and wasn't really as bad as everybody freaked out about. People still just find whatever excuse.
Like fine if you like Chrome, just admit you love Chrome because it's shiny.
You don't understand why someone who uses Firefox specifically because of its stance on privacy would be upset that the ToS are being updated to be "basically [the] same language as Chrome's"? Chrome, as in Google, the biggest name in tracking and ad-tech?
I haven't used Chrome since whenever they started logging you into the browser when you logged into GMail, and I'm sure most complaints about negative changes in Firefox come from long-standing Firefox users.
Exactly. I just feel like a point that originally was reasonable (around 2016 or so) became the spiraling echo chamber that became increasingly nonsensical and increasingly divorced from rhyme, reason, causation, logic, or proportionality. Case in point, Google Chrome has pushed web standards to consolidate its control over the web, but Firefox hid a cheeky reference to a TV show in its code one time! Those are incredibly different scales of offense.
