My bad, I expressed myself poorly. What I meant with 'targeted ads' was to show ads not on the browser itself but to people who might be more easily convinced to use Firefox.

Nobody is stopping Firefox from sponsoring creators, videos or even collaborating with them. permalink fedilink source parent
