“ Microsoft practices data collection minimization” - I find that hard to believe especially when we are automatically enrolled in said data collection.
Wait, what ? Mozilla is taking already more than 8 years to add SHA-2 support to mozilla::pkix's OCSP implementation ? This saddens me, the devs seem overloaded. As the only other open alternative to Chrome based browsers I hope they can stay current.
This seems like it may be similar to Microsoft was doing in 2011 [1].
However, while they are opting users in by default, at least they are being transparent about this, as I learned about this when I received a prompt that was similar to [2].
There's no "at least" about this, it's completely shady to opt you in by default. The fact that they're legally required to notify you in some places is probably what changed.
Yeah I was running into the title-length limit unfortunately.
The setting was automatically enabled by default for me after the 96.0.1054.53 update. Users are shown a prompt like [1] that indicates that the setting is active, but users have to go into Settings to turn off the feature.
