I recently downloaded Firefox as a browser on my computer to better protect my privacy. Unlike other browsers (including brave, a privacy friendly browser), Firefox completely logs me out of my account each time I quit the browser or restart my computer. I lost my settings and bookmarks several times due to this, before deciding to sync my data across devices. This is a problem I have never had with another browser. However, with these settings, Firefox still resets my default browser from duck duck go to google and changes my privacy settings to remember history (when I have repeatedly set it to never remember history), send technical and interaction data to Moxilla, and allow Firefox to install and run studies every time I re-open Firefox and log into my account. I have syncing on for my preferences at all times, and even made efforts to manually sync my settings right after changing them to my preferences, but these few settings still continue to reset. I chose Firefox as my browser to protect my privacy, but it feels ridiculous having to change my settings every time I open Firefox just to get the protections I want. I also noticed that under “Firefox Data Collection and Use” you say “We always ask permission before receiving personal information.”, however this seems to be the opposite of what I am experiencing as I have to actively prevent Firefox from running studies and sending technical interaction data to Moxilla by changing my settings again and again.
