Thumbs up

Very good article and am glad to know that Firefox has enhanced tracking on by default.

Quote:
"These protections work in the background, blocking third-parties from tracking your online activity while increasing the speed of the browser. We're offering privacy protections by default as you navigate the web because the business model of the web is broken,
Also, they explain the reason why in the next phrase:

Quote:
with more and more intrusive personal surveillance becoming the norm. While we hope that people's digital rights and freedoms will ultimately be guaranteed, we're here to help in the interim."
The business model of the internet is to intrude on the digital privacy rights of every computer user in the world. The intrusion into our personal life, and freedom, is wrong and must be resisted as much as possible.
