Mozilla launches Firefox pre-beta version that blocks tracking tools

Mozilla has launched a pre-beta version of Firefox elements that could track the user’s behavior, such as another tools and social network services.

This measure could break some sites. Mozilla feels that it is finally better to keep the users off sites’ radars by default.

If the users run into problems, there is a central control area where they can change their privacy and security settings.

Also, it enforces add-on verification by default so that social plug-in the users downloaded should not add unwanted toolbars, solid material ads or collect more data than it should. The users can turn off this filter.
