    No, of course not :) I am proposing that governments curb privacy-invasive tracking, i.e. that the only way advertisers will have left to measure the impact of their ads, is non-invasive methods like PPA.

      Why would a Firefox fan endorse the state coming down on the side of a Facebook made proposal? I remember when Mozilla used to be about fighting big tech corporations, not empowering them through state-mandated monopolies.

        Because the proposal itself appears to be good? I am not tribal enough to reject world peace if Facebook proposes it.

        I also don’t see how the proposal would lead to a Facebook monopoly.
