Is my phone being hacked also is my phone cloned with another device because I only have an Android Samsung Galaxy A14 that is the only device that I use with four different accounts Gmail accounts linked to my phone

I have telemetry (every checkbox under "Firefox Data Collection and Use") disabled, but noticed that the datareporting/archived directory contains telemetry files. Is this expected, or does this indicate a bug that shows that telemetry is being sent?

The file paths have the format:

<profile dir>/datareporting/archived/2025-09/<unixtimestamp>.<uuid>.main.jsonlz4 <profile dir>/datareporting/archived/2025-09/<unixtimestamp>.<uuid>.events.jsonlz4

A few minutes ago, when I closed one web site the following poped-up (nextsmartlawyer.com) and I can't get rid of it. Every time I close a web site, this is on my desktop. I even restarted my computer, no help. Is there something I can do to eliminate this?

I joined a Microsoft Teams meeting through Firefox on the web on a Linux machine. When I tried to share my entire screen, I was asked if I wanted to share the entire screen in a Firefox pop up which I said yes. Then the "you are sharing your entire screen" came up, the sharing icon was red and the "stop sharing" button was red. See attached image. This all disappeared and reverted to the default state almost instantly.

Teams has a feature to "manage what attendees see manage what attendees see" where the meeting host can preview shared content before making it live.

I am concerned that the meeting owner was able to see my entire shared screen without me even knowing it through this preview.

Can someone help? Microsoft just sends you around in circles and I can't contact Mozilla.

I just learnt that the mozilla firefox terms of service have been either updated, or previously included, a clause of sorts that states that any content uploaded to mozzilla is automatically given a royalty free worldwide license to mozilla itself. Does this apply to content such as add-ons only or does it apply to things uploaded to other websites(such as social media, forums, etc)

Has any body else found Firefox relay to be mostly useless? I put up with the annoyance for a few days and then had to get rid of it.

I did use it once to get past the id page for a purchase just to look at the freight cost. Too much, so the tab was closed straight away and the masked email did not leave my computer.

The problem is that signing up to new accounts or providing your email online is something that is done only very rarely compared to the number of times your email has to be used to login to an existing account but relay has to be in the way every time.

Just a hint to the developers, those accounts already have my email and they will never lose them. Also if I need to use my email to sign in, giving a mask email is not going to work very well.

Relay is a great idea if only it could determine the right time to get in the way.

Someone is able to access my hole phone account and do whatever they want to do I have changed my password,my email,my number, and factory reset my phone to still they have their way with my phone how can I stop them and how can I destroy them and there shit for good

My email was hacked in a data breach decades ago but I am now getting more serious problems: I and my friends on my contact list are getting spam emails from me. So they are actually using my email account to send them and therefore I cannot block them.

Also, I have noticed that I am not getting emails from my bank and energy company who say that they have been delivered. However I have not received them.

Is there a way to stop this? Someone suggested setting up an alias email account linked to my email. Would this work? I have tried a full scan but cannot find anything suspicious on my laptop or phone.

Does anyone know how I can sort this problem out?

I've used Firefox for a long time because it's been one of the few browsers that doesn't force features that harm its users onto the userbase. It's been leagues beyond the majority for that long time! The introduction of AI features over time has been a bell ringing for the loss of that thoughtful approach to aiding the users. AI in browsers has been used by malicious third parties to steal the data of anyone who visits specific sites, it's prone to misinformation when used to summarize anything, and simply doesn't add any value to the browsing experience. It gets in the way and slows it down, even! If more AI features are added, I will be finding a different browser to use.

I have happily used Firefox for years now, but I avoid using AI for both privacy and environmental reasons. I am extremely concerned by Mozilla's increased emphasis on these technologies. I do not want, nor will I put up with, new AI features in my browser. If the company continues this push, I will move to a different browser. It'll be very annoying, and I'll be really upset about it, but it's what I'll have to do if y'all keep going down this path. Please stop.

Hello,

support.mozilla.org/kb/website-translation says, when you do not have downloaded translation packs, parts of the packs will be downloaded when you first use the translation function.

My questions about this feature: - How does this work exactly? - Will the words from the website which i try to translate be collected and "downloaded"? - How are the translation language packs parted? - What information will be used and sent to servers/cloud to request these parts of the translation packs?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best Regards

Bjoern

I just heard the disheartening news that Mozilla just removed its long-standing promise to never sell peoples’ data…and inserted language giving themselves worldwide license to use the information entered in Firefox. Where can I find these new terms? How did I miss this?

What is the point of using Mozilla now, why bother?

Gross Stuff.
