While #mozilla may have backed off from their over-broad rights grant for information posted via #firefox the underlying rationale for why the change is happening now continues to be unclear.

Many seem to think that this has to do with #california #ccpa - as I was exploring that, I took a deeper dive into Mozilla's new #privacy policy.

My takeaway?

It appears that Mozilla may have been sharing more data with Mozilla's ad partners than you expected: quippd.com/social/posts/2025/0

Youssuff Quips · Who else is surprised that Mozilla uses “technical and interaction data” for advertising purposes on the New Tab Page?Mozilla’s legal updates from last week are the gift that keep on giving.

Weight loss

Finally unified all my weight loss data for the last ~14 years into one place. #MyFitnessPal tried to charge me to export my historical data so I hit them with a #CCPA request instead, heh.

Started weight myself at 600lbs in 2010, I am at my lowest since probably 1998 right now, and continuing to drop. This is why people who shit talk #semaglutide / #ozempic / #wegovy / #GLP1 drugs can bite me. I fought the “good fight” for 12 years and I’ve made more progress in 2 years on WeGovy, and with fewer side effects than the surgeries or the diets had. #WeightLoss #Health
