Profanity isn't an issue on HN but "you don’t give a flying fuck about me, and only want your own benefit" is not, to my ear, the sort of thing one says to an abstract entity.

Have you also read the "and choosing opt-out" before that?

The topic is a choice that Mozilla plans to make, and is questioning users, and more about.

The decision has not been made.

My argument is that, if Mozilla (and whatever users Mozilla asks to give an opinion), choose to override the current decisions of users who do not want telemetry, and require a new hidden opt-out, then that would be proof that they (as group) don’t really care about the users choices.

The user I was talking to has no power in making that choice, nor do I. Nor is all of Mozilla making that choice.

I was using "you" with the meaning of the German word "man", (I’m natively German): one; you; they; people (indefinite pronoun; construed as a third-person singular).

Ok, probably a linguistic misunderstanding in this case. But you've straddled the civility/incivility line so often in your comments here that I still wish you would take a few more steps in the right (for HN) direction. I bet translation issues would cease to be a problem if you did.
