Oh, I see, I interpreted the statement as Mozilla handing over previously collected user data as payment for getting AccuWeather’s widget.
However, any webpage visited in a bowser provides this info. So if you haven’t stopped it happening from the get, you’re handing this data over in mass. But thanks for clearing that up for me!
Sure. Normally I think of visiting a site in a browser as navigating to that site on purpose. If Mozilla sells placement in the browser so that the browser navigates to that site automatically (unless you disable that), it’s invasive. That said I do remember Mozilla sets the default start page to something annoying and I had to reconfigure it to about:blank when I set up the system.
