Mozilla and Firefox have been going downhill for quite some time now. I'm pretty surprised people are shocked by this.

Yeah, I'm in no way surprised by this, but still somehow deeply disappointed.

You may not use any of Mozilla’s services to:

Do anything illegal or otherwise violate applicable law,

So is Mozilla saying that you can not use Firefox to access pirated media, recommend abortion clinics, denounce the Palestinian genocide, etc?
