I'm sorry, "we need analytics therefore it's fine to violate privacy" is not good reasoning!

But Mozilla doesn't appear to have done that. "We need analytics, and we respect privacy, so we've come up with something that's better than most companies but still not good enough for some of our users".

It's easy to bash someone for hypocrisy when they're trying trying to do the right thing. It's a bit weird seeing this consternation at Mozilla considering just how scummy the other companies are.

They are definitely helping, but I do wish there was wider awareness of the implications of G-A everywhere.
