  • Vind ik niet raar, maar het is inderdaad voor zowel Nederlandse als Europese burgerinitiatieven wel verplicht. Zo kan men controleren dat het inderdaad de mening van echt-bestaande Nederlandse burgers vertegenwoordigt, zodat die dingen nog wat waard zijn.

    Triodos, FNV, MVO Nederland, Oxfam Novib en Milieudefensie zijn allemaal betrouwbare partijen, dus als je vanaf hun websites verwijzingen hiernaar hebt gevonden, dan mag je er wel vanuit gaan dat ze zich aan de wet houden en je gegevens niet voor andere doeleinden gebruiken, en verwijderen als ze niet meer nodig zijn.

  • I've been using this for a bit on Nightly, and though I'm wary of sacrificing website screen real estate to the browser, I must say that I found out that I'm using the new buttons quite often. Or rather, I had been using them a lot via the menu, and it's actually pretty nice having them easily available.

    Turns out I use the forward button a lot because I've enabled gesture navigation, and often accidentally move back. Ironically I use gesture navigation to save on screen real estate, so maybe I should stop using that 😅

    Other than that both refresh, share and new tab are in very heavy rotation, and it now feels like a slog to have to open a menu for them. I say, give it a shot!

  • ASN Bank heeft dan wel weer fantastisch internetbankieren, dan hoef je uberhaupt geen app - dat is al helemaal goed voor je privacy.

    Ik ben op zich iemand die de fysieke pinpas (met contactloos betalen) eigenlijk makkelijker vindt dan de telefoon, maar bereik je niet bijna hetzelfde als je de pas achter je telefoon plakt/in een telefoonhoesje stopt? I guess dat de pincode af en toe intypen wel een gedoe is, maar aan de andere kant hoef je niet je telefoon te openen en de juiste app te vinden.

  • What I mean as beforehand is before it lands in nightly. If the Figma links weren't locked down, people would've said it's a shit idea before the first patch was even written.

    Right, but it's not a huge patch, especially if the only change needed is the addition of a toggle, so it feels like it's still well within the margins of being in time. I do agree that it would be nice if the Figma files were public, though at the same time I also understand that maybe you don't necessarily need criticism on rough ideas for which not a single line of code has written. And it's also pretty hard for outside contributors to actually collaborate on designs, though maybe there are solutions imaginable for that :/

    And yeah, glad we actually did manage to find common ground after all!

  • I won't deny that Mozilla should be friendlier to community contributions.

    But this is exactly it:

    I enjoy testing things and shaping the future of Firefox.

    So when you say:

    people would've said beforehand

    This is beforehand! You're using Nightly so you can help shape this feature; so that that option to toggle it off gets added before this reaches regular users.

    (I can also assure you that Firefox is a passion for many of the people who work on it. Some of them are pretty active on Mastodon, too.)

  • I really don't follow this... I'm just curious what you think the problem is, but no matter how often I ask it, you seem to think I'm saying that you're wrong.

    For absolute clarity, we both agree on the following, right?

    • This app hides the path from the URL bar.
    • This app currently still shows the full URL in the URL bar.

    So I'm not saying you're wrong about anything. I am still very curious about what the problem is, but you don't seem to want to answer that, for the third time now?

  • Ah gotcha, thanks for bringing in the source - that does come down to the ISRG selling it. The thing I'd missed in your quote is that it's referring to aggregate data. So yeah, how that meshes with what I've read is that the ISRG won't be able to view user data, but indeed the ad performance data would be sold to advertisers.

  • for the third party services that do the aggregating, which will "sell" (literal quote) the aggregate data

    You're saying you're literally quoting the ISRG as planning to sell the data? Because that goes directly against what I've read about this, which I believe says that they wouldn't even be able to because they can't see the data.

  • Advertisers can already easily get this data without this setting, and any measures you take to block ads also by definition affect this setting.

    Meanwhile, if this works and becomes widely available, regulators will be able to take measures against user surveillance without having to succumb to the ad industry's argument that they won't know whether their ads work.

    And yes, this provides data to advertisers, but it's data about their ads, not about users.
