Hey,

so probably everyone has heard about Mozilla's "PPA", or
"Privacy-Preserving Attribution" addition to Firefox-128.0 release.
Quite rightfully the Internet has been furious about it, but Mozilla did
communicate afterwards with their intentions.

So far I've only seen Alpine toggling this option off with their Firefox
package. Most likely other distro maintainers out there have received
inquiries about toggling it off from your users, and most likely you
distro maintainers have pondered what to do with it even without
requests from your users. Therefore I'm asking: How are you feeling
about the option overall? Should "all" distributions turn it off by
default for our users? That'd send a message to Mozilla, but the result
could be that next time the option isn't toggleable...

Here's an upstream tracker about PPA:
