The most effective surveillance doesn’t watch you. It protects your belief that no one is watching.
If you felt the gaze, you’d change. So the system’s real job isn’t observation. It’s maintaining your illusion of privacy.

This isn't about protection.
It's about data collection, and everyone knows it.

No cameras. No sensors.
Just Wi-Fi reading human movement.
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have developed a system that uses standard WiFi routers to detect human movement through walls—without any cameras.
By applying AI and DensePose model, the system turns WiFi signals into detailed maps of body posture in real time.

Well, it's not actually going through your browser's history, but looking at the data Google's collected about you.

Recommend uninstalling #Mozilla #Firefox #browser immediately and switching to a more #privacy friendly alternative. Not only do Mozilla now claim a license to your data, they removed the assurance that they do not sell it. #infosec #dfir #security

Use Firefox? Mozilla Says it Can Use Your Data However it Wants.

It's disappointing to see Firefox seemingly backtrack on its privacy promises. Perhaps this is a good time to explore alternative browsers that prioritize user privacy. Options like Brave or even ungoogled-chromium might be worth considering.

Mozilla just changed the Firefox TOS. If you're a privacy person, might be time to move off.
Community note
This is now outdated. Mozilla updated the Terms of Use to be more clear:
It also includes a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license for the purpose of doing as you request with the content you input in Firefox. This does not give Mozilla any ownership in that content.

Mozilla has just deleted the following:
“Does Firefox sell your personal data?”
“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "
