A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

maybe residual firefox configs that were disabled but not purged?
The first tracker is "Mozilla telemetry" probably a leftover, the other is "Sentry" which is a crash reporter, Sentry is not a problem i think
AFAIK Sentry is mostly bug or error checker and its send to the devs.
I tried TOR just once; it doesn't fit my needs. But for others, this program is essential to their safety—even their LIVES. Just one tracker is too much.
Tor is aware, and are working to completely remove the trackers that were transferred over from the code. That being said, all the trackers are disabled by default so it's not like they're actually reporting anywhere. Tor has one of the best track records for privacy of any software. I don't think your raising any flags or blowing any whistles that the people who trust Tor are unaware of.
Inherited from Firefox and disabled
