First of all, what Joe C says happens to be the reality. The other thing is, that f.e. one can use an OLD Ff without the telemetry garbage like 52.9, or, block Mozilla in the FIrewall And, just by the way.... should someone take over my computer... that this person (or government) maybe reading my mails, will probably be one of the minor problems. What I find puzzling is, why on both my computers "Add new login" does not appear... One uses the updated Ff esr and one another Ff, yet on both no add new login, as the picture I uploaded shows....
