Here is a comment I noticed at https://old.reddit.com/r/libreboot/comments/fxxd4r/surveillance_set_to_intensify/fnjsilz/

WebAuthN and Google Payment API will enforce ID2020 tracking across the web universally. The code is already in place so I suppose there just sitting around waiting on when to flip the switch. This is exactly what Larry Lessig warned about in his book Code 2.0. The only browser left right now that doesn't have that is PaleMoon, and there's an active effort to ridicule and extinguish it from existence.

Have you heard of this? I wonder if PaleMoon is the only way to go against this.

I use Waterfox, and something tells me this might be a double-bluff to make Palemoon look better— because it's also run by hippy sjw commie faggots.Waterfox's two main selling points are:

No Telemetry

Waterfox does not collect any telemetry, meaning you do not have to worry about any tracking or usage information about what you do inside your browser.
 
Limited Data Collection  
The only thing that Waterfox sends back is your OS and browser version to check for updates to various components. That's it, and no more.

I have not heard about it but thank you for pasting the text here because I can't stand going to reddit's site and rarely follow links there. If true, this connection sounds chilling.

I understand the feeling. There are a couple of tech subs on reddit I check from time to time, but I have abandoned most.

I use opera I'll have to check if it contains this or not.

Isn't Opera run by a Chinese company? I'm willing to bet hard money that they do.

I honestly don't know I picked it years ago becuase it wasn't chrome and seemed to run smoother and had a good score on the acid 3 test.

The company changed ownership when Otello (at the time, Opera Software ASA) sold its web-browser and consumer businesses along with the Opera brand to a Chinese group of investors in 2016, with the deal completing in November of that year.[6]

On July 27, 2018, Opera Software went public on the NASDAQ stock exchange, raising $115 million in its initial public offering.[7]

If this company glowed any harder, they'd call it "the second sun."
