All other issues aside, this is something that also happened to me. My first thought was "Oh no, what is this proprietary service doing in my browser?" and I tried to find a way to rip it out. To be honest, I still haven't looked up what Hello is all about or how it works (especially in terms of what data gets sent where, why and when) and I feel like the latter should have been documented and presented to the end-user. Seeing some people run around, yelling > "Great, Mozilla, will [proprietary chat/voip service] be integrated, too?" or > "I wonder when they will build in [a popular social network that spies on its > users] integration that nobody but power users knows how to disable." is obviously a bad thing - and I've seen it happen a lot. _______________________________________________ governance mailing list governance@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
