More nonsense.

Is everything you put up to address my comment.

I did use a text browser. But you apparently fail their purpose. I pipe <html/> into it so that I can't be fooled by such propaganda-spitting guys.. (...).

... fascist platforms that aren't ...

You implied bad about me, so I reason this post with that.

... changing your useragent ...

Sounds harder than triggering a flag for a feature which aims at serving you, the user.

Your next sentence, minus the next propaganda, makes me wonder:

This is pointless hypothetical FUD with little existing precedence (...) so you can find a way to not hold Mozilla accountable for being a shit platform that's supporting ad culture again.

By "This" you mean the topic? I already prompted you my point of view; You didn't address it. You falsely accuse Mozilla of pushing advertisements down ones throat. Obv. wrong. This undermines my point which I made in order to aid your shortcomings I saw.

    Not at all. I was referring to Xshitter and Facebook. I wasn't trying to imply you were a fascist. Sorry if it seemed that way.

    Clarify?

    You falsely accuse Mozilla of pushing advertisements down ones throat.

    My argument in this thread was that Mozilla is supporting ad culture, though I suppose serving targeted ads regardless of anonymity can still be considered "pushing advertisements down ones throat". Regardless, pocket already exists to push ads down my throat, should I wish it to ;)

    You suggested that one can change user agents, once (and here is room for debate) firefox is not working properly. At least this is what I carry around from our convo!

    Regardless,

    Yeah, because you still managed to propagate assumptions which may be hard to reason about objectively.

    That's about available sources. But I agree that just 5% of articles within their topics do not force cookies. If Mozilla would reside in the EU Pocket would have much higher quality (since I think to recall these sources are hand picked).
