Mozilla doesn't fail to make a new bad decision every day: People who decide to give Firefox Hello a try will automatically have their tabs shared to their contacts without their consent from now on.

It's a good thing I disabled that shit and never intend to use it then.
>without their consent
It seems your own screenshot disproves that allegation.

>Hey, we just shared the entirety of you browsing data along with the list of all the porn you watched for the past 10 years with all your friends, along with a bunch of profiling agencies that surely won't hesitate to sell it to the company you work for, and you might lose your job! How exciting!
>Perhaps you want to disable it? Click here!
THANK GOD I CAN DISABLE IT

>doesn't fail
such a shame
it was a great browser once
>bad decisions in a nightly build
What a shock OP.

I rather doubt it gets sent to anyone other than who you're calling.
If you have a point to make, you might want to tone down the ridiculous exaggerations.
>>51734561
You're calling someone supposedly to talk to them, not to let them know your browsing habits at home.

I can see it being a useful feature, although I wholly agree it probably shouldn't be enabled by default. That's besides the point, though.
>>51734440
pretty much this
Is it the same guy who creates those threads against Mozilla every day?
>>51735046
Same shitty ghacks website at least. Couldn't be assed to even find the bugzilla ticket: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209713
Seems they are significantly changing the scope of Hello.

>That's besides the point, though.
Well no that's the whole point, because by the time you realize it, it's too late already.
>>51733942
so that's the shit they're wasting their time on?

>As a Desktop client user, I want to initiate a sharing session as simply as possible.
said nobody, ever.

You're worried that a strange feature in an end-to-end encrypted service, maintained by a nonprofit organisation, will lead to a slippery slope of privacy violations?

I guess that would be alright if I was secure on my end.
I'm not.
>>51735882
Yes, webrtc has issues and that whole thing should be resolved. Promptly. Old news. And not by design.
>>51733942
why? what's the point of sharing tabs with friends?
>>51736030
synchronous fapping to furryporn
>>51736030
>>51736047
its like parallel computing
>parallel masturbation
>>51736030
this, seriously. what purpose does it serve? if you want to show them a website just copy and paste the link.
>>51736208
Or just, you know, share it on Facebook, which is what normies do.
I don't get who this feature targets.
