Good. Opt-out is authoritarian dogshit, and should be illegal.

Dogshit, yes. Authoritarian, no. Word choice matters.

Opt-out is crepuscular nonsense!

It is opt-in if you have an adblocker.

Also it is anonymised info

Except Mozilla enables the telemetry by default and does not ship an ad blocker.

Also the data is not anonymized until after upload. You must trust Mozilla to do this. And I don't know how much I trust Mozilla after they refused to announce this change to its users.
