In response to the introduction of PPA: Why I cancelled my Mozilla VPN subscription and why you should too

With Mozilla buying an AdTech Company and building tracking directly into their browser (“Privacy-Preserving” Attribution, sure…), the future of Mozilla seems clear: Yet again they fail to understand who their userbase is and sellout the data of the little userbase they still have for the short time money. That Mozilla does not understand, that 2,83% market share in the browser userbase means that those 2,83% probably care about their privacy is beyond me.

Anyhow: I was a happy Mozilla VPN customer as Mozilla VPN is neither the most feature rich VPN on the market nor the cheapest but fulfilled my needs and as a nice sideeffect I could support Mozilla through my subscription. As I read the news of PPA introduction I came to the conclusion that it makes no sense anymore to pay for a VPN subscription that is more expensive and has less features than the competition if the company that runs the VPN does not care about my privacy.

So I invite you to join me in sending a message to Mozilla: If you don’t care about our privacy there is literally no reason for you to exist: Neither as a VPN provider nor as a browser company.

Did you even like, read any of what the functionality of PPA is and it’s actual purpose or did you read a headline/post title and proceed to throw a hissy fit without doing any basic research?

It kinda astounds me that you clearly haven’t at all, part of the point of PPA is that it explicitly DOESN’T “sell” specific user data.

Sure, go to nord von much better. I love how uninformed people are mad about a feature that they can disable and bc they are mad they post saying that they are moving to objectively worse options
