Mozilla has just deleted the following:

“Does Firefox sell your personal data?”

“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "

their acceptable use policy straight up forbids viewing pornography or graphic violence

That's one thing I'm unsure about, because at the very top of the acceptable use policy it says that those points apply to Mozilla services - is Firefox a service, or does it only apply to online services that are built into Firefox?

I still don't like it if it's overreaching, but I could understand if they don't want, say, porn on some sharing features where they might be hosting something.
