Why is this getting posted 3+ times today? This site is garbage and fear mongering. Most of what is listed is just “how the internet works” stuff. Downvote and move on.

    There’s nothing dangerous here. And why would you need an app? Your browser IS the app.

    Firefox really has been bought and paid for by Goofle to send that much data for no reason. What do you need the city for my time zone for? Why my gyroscope? Why the languages of my phone? Just stick to the damn language I tell the damn browser to request and nothing else.

    Are there any extensions that clean up request data and no-op JavaScript APIs?
