This is a link to a diff of Firefox where the FAQ are stored in a structured way. In the diff it can be seen that the question "Does Firefox sell your personal data?" has been removed:

        {  
            "@type": "Question",  
            "name": "Does Firefox sell your personal data?",  
            "acceptedAnswer": {  
                "@type": "Answer",  
                "text": "Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from  
                        many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed  
                        to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "  
            }  
        },

People in the comments are asking if the definition of the word "neven" has been changed or what's going on.

All browsers on iOS devices are Safari

But they can still behave differently. Some stuff might not work on Safari, that Edge will open with no problems. Also, all the stuff that’s NOT the rendering engine can be something else than Safari.

Except that isn't really the case unless the website is behaving differently do to the user agent. Apple prohibits any extensions or thing else like that.

What about browsers that removes ads - wouldn’t that be changing of the website?
