Why is Firefox making these outbound connections?
(infosec.pub)
I have all Firefox Data Collection and Use options disabled.
Anyone know what all of these services are doing? I assume they're for auto updates, account sync, and maybe pushing Pocket ads and/or sponsored pins?
Likely, I'll block most, but curious if anyone knew.
gotcha! I’ve just started to use opensnitch (for linux) but I don’t usually inspect the detailed connections that often. thanks for the tip on firefox, I’ll be on the lookout for those.
Nice, would also recommend Safing Portmaster for Linux, if you've not tried it yet. A great FOSS tool for managing network connections.
thanks for the suggestion! will check it out!
