Skimming through some of the negative reaction to Mozilla’s new terms. I took a minute to update Micro.blog’s own privacy policy so that it’s current. Our terms of service has always said you own your data. Never even crossed my mind to sell data it’s such a foreign idea and counter to our mission.
@manton It seems as if every other day I get an email from some company or other updating their privacy policy and terms of service. These things are in effect for three months, and then another one shows up. It's truly annoying, because there's no option to refuse. If you do, you lose the service. Consumers ought to be protected from this sort of thing, but of course that's not happening anytime soon with the gutting of the CFPB.
@apoorplayer Yeah, it's a real problem because unlike traditional software, with web apps you have to be on the latest version. There's no way to keep using the old version or old terms. I don't know what the solution is other than to change terms very rarely and carefully (and only for the better for users).
