I've switched to Fennec as I don't use any of Mozilla's services.

They changed their browser into something that required clicking an Agree button on first install.

And apparently now they've altered the bargain further.

Firefox is the only browser that does this AFAIK.

It really isn't, which is the concerning part.

Accepting a private policy is concerning? They've been very clear about what it entails and most of the accusations have been rebuked.

Have you ever seen a web browser, corporate or small, open or closed source, force you to accept a new privacy policy before continuing to use their product?

Did Mozilla really dispel the criticisms?

Do you personally attest to the belief that Mozilla has not worsened those policies in the last update?
