By default now Firefox for Android shares an extra link with TRACKING for advertising itself. This is the features that everyone loves.

Ok, buried in the menu there's an option to disable this shit. But it's infuriating that a "please spam my friends and track the opening rate of my links" option is enabled by default

I'm currently more perturbed by the headline about them nerfing HEVC functionality.

Hey in a $1500 laptop there aren't enough margins for paying 4 cents of royalties

I didn't think it was Mozilla doing that. It was laptop manufacturers.
