Easy to block this with NetGuard.
The "For Developers" schtick has really become pathetic. I am not a "developer". I am a user who does not care for sending free data to "tech" companies.
Perhaps Mozilla's partners can be sold the idea that Mozilla is only allowing "developers" to potentially have more control over surreptitious data collection, e.g., by using "add-ons", and the assumption by those partnering with Mozilla is that "developers" are all on the side of online advertising. Not quite.
Whatever the reasons for it may be, the entire "developer" vs "user" distinction has become absurd. It assumes (incorrectly) there are no people who know how to build, program and use computers who are not "developers". Not everyone wants to apply their computer know-how to profit from online advertising and associated surveillance.
