How is the internet less private than in 2006, when the whole family shared one computer?

Back then, the internet was weird, personal, and all of ours.

So, we got your favorite meme legends back together to say it louder: What happened to the internet?

Here’s what happened: big tech tracking you everywhere, ads that follow you around, and AI you didn’t ask for.

Their landing page: Come back to Firefox.
