video: https://youtu.be/gOsPlRv2i1o
Mozilla just can’t seem to stay out of controversy! The latest Firefox Terms of Use update sparked major backlash, with users fearing data harvesting, forcing Mozilla to backtrack—again. Meanwhile, Firefox 136 brings great updates for Linux users, but that’s overshadowed by the mess they are making. And on the Google side, the DOJ is pushing for Chrome to be sold to break Google’s search monopoly. Could this actually happen? What would it mean for the future of web browsing? Let’s break it all down!
