I don't understand why Mozilla would do this. Clearly the image I have of Mozilla and the real Mozilla are very divergent. I guess I have stuff to figure out, like my next browser...

These anti-privacy company will try every mean to violate privacy anyway. So your idea is to simply pretend the fact that every single website on internet has facebook/google tracker, instead of trying to set up a way that can regulate them?
Personally I have never used facebook, self-host almost everything and have a master degree in privacy, but I still find the work worth considering.
Negotiation is always better than nothing.

I mean, they are currently on life support by another anti-privacy competitor who is responsible for >85% of Mozilla's revenue, so for them to work with more companies against their mission statement on being 'privacy first' seems like another let down and damaging to that purpose.

"Mozilla and X are working together" is a code for Mozilla taking $$$$ to sign off on something and sell itself. Like with Google, or that time they killed Voice recognition program for $2mil from Nvidia.

Side note but this is the first time I’ve seen reddit comments embedded in the same manner as tweets. I really like it! I’ve always thought of reddit and twitter as fulfilling very similar niches.
