andrewek 29 Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Hello all! I have a question about this Firefox extension. Firefox telemetry is disabled in about: config. But this extension is constantly enabled, even if it is disabled via CCleaner (screen). And even if you delete it (delete the xpi file) - the next time you start the browser - this extension works again!😯How safe is it? can I ignore? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeremyNicoll 81 Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 This is part of Firefox, provided by Mozilla. So you can trust it just as much as the whole of the rest of Firefox.
