Why are you saving months of my browsing history? How do I turn that off? That does not seem like a privacy-friendly practice.

Hi

Thank you for your question. This support article should help:

I notice that you may be using an older version of Firefox. I recommend that you update so that you have the latest security and stability improvements.

So is this browsing history backed up locally on my machine or is it stored by Mozilla?
