A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

They aren't killing Mv2 but they implemented there own ad system in Firefox that was silently turned on. That is on top of all the other anti privacy stuff like telemetry, Firefox suggest and Pocket.
They are only good for privacy when compared to Chrome. Compared to Librewolf and similar they are abysmal
Librewolf is firefox, just modified
True but it rips out the junk and applies the hardening from Tor
All that is irrelevant to what I just said, and what you originally said, but for the record, I'm not mad about it. Firefox is implementing ads in a privacy-friendly way and, now that they're basically the only browser engine in the world that isn't Chromium and their Google money is drying up, they're going to have to earn revenue somehow. No way in hell they're going to live off donations, and if they start charging for the browser, their entire userbase -- and with it their ability to influence W3C standards -- will disappear faster than you can blink. If they do that by selling privacy respecting ads, I'm all for it.
The problem is that it is opt out with no warning popup.
