Maybe Brendan Eich will put together an email client to compete with Thunderbird, like he did with “Brave” to compete with “Firefox” when Mozilla kicked him out for not being a leftist idiot.

Funny, just yesterday I was researching another email client to use on Linux.

For those who expect to continue with Firefox/Thunderbird, any specific suggestions for tweaking their settings to maintain maximum privacy?

The new Mozilla Terms appear to speak only about Firefox.

So do these new Terms apply to Thunderbird? If so, how? I find it hard to believe that Mozilla would actually monetize the content of emails, that's so low I can't imagine even those leftists doing it.

Google, yes. That's why I don't do my personal email with my Gmail account. For my personal email I built my own mailserver for my own domain using AWS, Ubuntu, Postfix, Dovecot, and SpamAssassin. And I use the T'bird client.

So I'm really hoping that T'bird is not compromised, but if it is, maybe someone will fork the sources....

Tr out thorium browser. Been reading about brave and not so good reviews lately, mainly beczuse of the lack of customizability. One quirk I don’t like about it is no way to open links in new tab and to switch to it immediately. Other than that I think it’s OK , but i do rely on opening a new tab with links - ther are a few ways, but they inlcude exrra clicks- I’m gonna check out thorium- saw a few reviews if it on yt.

I thought Mozilla severed ties with Thunderbird years ago.

“...to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact...”

"worldwide license for the purpose of doing as you request with the content you input..."

Whenever some corporation changes its policy "for your convenience" it becomes less convenient for me.

Nearly every program phones home.
I just want to know what exactly they are sending back and is it tied to me and can I block it with deleting cookies.

I saw a video where it was revealed that 47 cities are using cameras everywhere to track your vehicle by license including the condition such as has a dent, color brown etc. and your name is attached so the politicians know where you are 24/7. Police officers have been caught tracking their ex-wives, husbands, girlfriends etc.

These cities and the company behind it are sharing the info with each other and any law enforcement without a warrant.

Your own new car is tracking you!!

I quit using Firefox many years ago as it became a memory hog and was never fixed.

Don’t know if that is still the case now, as I didn’t even know anyone still used it.
