PSA (?): just got this popup in Firefox when i was on an amazon product page. looked into it a bit because it seemed weird and it turns out if you click the big “yes, try it” button, you agree to mandatory binding arbitration with Fakespot and you waive your right to bring a class action lawsuit against them. this is awesome thank you so much mozilla very cool

So, Mozilla adds an AI review features for products you view using Firefox. Other than being very useless, it’s T&C are as anti-consumer as it possibly can be. It’s like mozilla saying directly “we don’t care about your privacy”.

Okay, but why do you think it’s useless?

Because not many people from somewhere like greece shop on walmart or best buy, and many people who use Firefox also are anti amazon

Hmm, that might be a bug - it looks like it was only meant to be available in the US. I’ve never seen it, at least.

It’s not a bug. I don’t think they saw it. They just need something to be angry about.
