"No telemetry" -> first thing Librewolf does is connect to Mozilla telemetry services.
Found out this by having @littlesnitch@mastodon.obdev installed.

That section covers your concern
What I don't get is why they don't allow users to decide if they want to connect to Mozilla or not with an option in the settings. Libre means being free (to choose in this case), not being forced.
They do. It’s called Deny and it’s right there in the screenshot.never mind. I see it was me who misunderstood.
But they want to bitch and moan and wave their pitchforks around because their privacy is obviously being violated. 🙄
@TheWorldRolledMe "LibreWolf also maintains an open WebSocket towards Mozilla's push server to check wether you have received push notifications from websites you have subscribed to."
An app that is developed privacy in mind should never connect to anywhere without consent.
Also, I really don't need any freakin' push notifications from websites. I'm not "subscribing" to anything - or never will. What is that even - I didn't know I can subscribe through Mozilla to websites. Weird.
without consent…
Um… isn’t that what the screenshot is asking for? I’m missing the part where you’re being forced without consent?Edit: I misunderstood the above screenshot. My apologies.
@dohpaz42 Nope, that is a screen capture from Little Snitch (Firewall) that noticed new outgoing connection.
I just realized that. My apologies.
