You might be aware Chrome— a browser made by an ad company— has been trying to claw back the limitations recently placed on ad networks by the death of third-party cookies, and added new features that gather and report data directly to ad networks. You'd know this because Chrome displayed a popup.
If you're a Firefox user, what you probably don't know is Firefox added this feature and *has already turned it on without asking you*
@Trainguyrom@thingsiplay That’s cool, I also want to run the aggregation service and collect browsing habits of everybody online. Can you setup your browser to send your data to me? I promise I will anonymize them, and never sell them, pinky swear

The middle ground is not always a reasonable position.
