Submission + - Firefox TOS change has an over reaching data grab license term (mozilla.org) 3

Submitted by agristin on Thursday February 27, 2025 @10:04AM

agristin writes: Recent update to the Firefox license ( https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/... ) has this disturbing little TOS addition:

Seems like an over reach.

If signed into law, HB0081 would prevent any individual or political subdivision from adding fluoride "to water in or intended for public water systems."
