Firefox and Pocket are abusive too though
It's not hard to not use them. I don't use either one.
That kind of extraneous functionality just shouldn't be bundled with Firefox to begin with.
If a user does want such functionality, then an extension could be voluntarily installed to provide it.
The other browser tried to push for Web Integrity API and is now degrading adblock experience, I feel that there's really no comparison.
Mozilla may have missteps but the browser still clearly seem to be siding with the user.
The defaults are almost always not what I want.
