In TOS they can have our data entered in browser as royalty free data. Now, what? I know we can use Librewolf but if Mozzila goes full evil. Then what choice we have. Can we make Mozzila reverse this changes? Remind them to be not evil? Both Proton and Firefox are core part of my privacy focus life. I swear to God I hate capitalism they all are just doing this for money.

That seems to break DSGVO. Gonna have to write a mail to them every day, as well as inform your countries dsgvo person.

It's a dick move for sure, but how exactly does it "break" GDPR?

Probably by collecting people's personal information that they would enter into web forms during the course of normal doing business on the internet. If you are opening a bank account or paying taxes online why should Firefox be allowed to collect your name, address, and birthdate?
