Actually they should have been adding this feature as optional where we have to Opt-In. Not activated by default and then we ask to Opt-Out.
That .is. an improvement. That does not change my position. Share is synonymous to sell when you consider the spread of data. Mozilla was not fully clarifying this is the reason for change in vernacular, and many people felt 'fooled' into thinking 'we dont sell your data' means 'we dont share your data'
