- Noté 1 sur 5par baruch60610, il y a 11 joursI had high hopes for this extension. I normally have to check out the reviews of each product I'm interested in, and switch to "recent reviews." This can become burdensome. So Mozilla's Fakespot looked like the ideal add-on. Sadly, it was not.
When I was installing it, I realized that I was somewhat selling my soul to Mozilla, but I clicked "accept" anyway. Sure, take all my data, just spare me fake reviews.
Sadly, that didn't happen. Despite handing over my complete data, I did not get a functional extension. It was buggy, inconsistent, slow, and intrusive. It kept opening tabs I didn't want, completely interfering with my efforts to learn about Amazon products. So - sold my soul for a broken tool. Serves me right.
Spare yourself the trouble. It doesn't work. - Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 18508450 de Firefox, il y a 11 jours

- Noté 1 sur 5par Umbra, il y a 18 joursYou don't actually "need" the data from my machine. I'm willing to bet if I block all outgoing traffic to your servers at a network level, the extension will still work just fine. I was alright sharing some data until you became more heavy handed with it. Now you cannot have any of my data ever again. Collect responsibly or not at all.
- Noté 1 sur 5par tooby, il y a 18 joursI have loved this add-on for a long time, but the new privacy stuff gets a 1 star and uninstall.
- Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 18497036 de Firefox, il y a 18 joursIt used to work much better, but what really pushed me away was this dishonest privacy policy change, about collecting (and likely selling) user data. Thanks but no thanks. Do better.
- Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 18497007 de Firefox, il y a 18 joursThis addon was updated with complete and total disrespect for user privacy. It wasn't enough for Mozilla to become a total freakshow organization staffed exclusively with mentally ill management, they also have to become data harvesting psychos.

- Noté 1 sur 5par geeknik, il y a 19 joursAfter analyzing the Fakespot privacy policy and the Mozilla Manifesto, I've identified several inconsistencies which highlight differences in their approaches to internet privacy and user rights. Here are the key points of divergence:
Data Collection and User Privacy:
Mozilla's Principle 4 states that "Individuals' security and privacy on the internet are fundamental and must not be treated as optional." However, Fakespot's privacy policy outlines extensive data collection practices, including personal information, device information, and user behavior. This broad data collection seems at odds with Mozilla's emphasis on fundamental privacy rights.
User Control Over Data:
Mozilla's Principle 5 asserts that "Individuals must have the ability to shape the internet and their own experiences on it." In contrast, Fakespot's policy gives users limited control over their data. While it mentions some user rights, the process for exercising these rights isn't clearly outlined, and the policy takes a "take it or leave it" approach to consent.
Transparency and Accountability:
Mozilla's Principle 8 emphasizes "Transparent community-based processes promote participation, accountability and trust." Fakespot's policy, however, lacks specificity in areas such as data retention periods and the process for policy changes, which could be seen as less transparent and accountable.
Commercial Interests vs. Public Benefit:
Mozilla's Principle 9 states, "Commercial involvement in the development of the internet brings many benefits; a balance between commercial profit and public benefit is critical." Fakespot's policy seems more heavily weighted towards commercial interests, with extensive data collection and sharing practices that primarily benefit the company and its partners.
Open and Accessible Internet:
Mozilla's Principle 2 declares that "The internet is a global public resource that must remain open and accessible." While Fakespot provides a service intended to help users, its data collection and processing practices could be seen as creating barriers to open and free internet use, particularly for privacy-conscious individuals.
Enriching Individual Lives:
Mozilla's Principle 3 states that "The internet must enrich the lives of individual human beings." While Fakespot aims to provide valuable services, its extensive data collection and sharing practices could be seen as potentially compromising individual privacy and autonomy, which some might argue doesn't align with enriching lives.

- Noté 1 sur 5par Austin , il y a un moisWanted to love this but between the data collection policy and inconsistency in the ability to parse out junk products, I have to say this add on is about 90% useless.
If Mozilla reworks this add on I would consider using it again. - Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 16176053 de Firefox, il y a un mois
- Noté 1 sur 5par SkepticalLayman, il y a un moisdisgusting that Mozilla would put out such a blatant datamining product
- Noté 1 sur 5par Clutterfunk, il y a un moisSeriously... and its made by Mozilla as well :( I guess they will have to get your data somehow...
- Noté 1 sur 5par Pitt, il y a un moisI uninstalled it without hesitation after their extortionate notice about the collection and use of my data
I had no idea that an add-on with such unacceptable practices belongs to Mozilla!
