Personally I think people are overreacting. As far as I know you can turn everything off in the settings. People also complained about the privacy-preserving measurement being on by default but I'm pretty sure that was a bug because on a new install it gets disabled when you disable Firefox studies and other collection stuff.

I hate that platform. My account got blocked because I haven't used it in a long time but was still receiving emails. I decided to delete it but I had to submit my ID. I wasn't very happy about it but apparently they delete the data right after verifying your identity. Anyway, I submitted 2 requests and waited over 3 weeks and no one bothered to look at my case. I literally had to go through the privacy policy to find a contact for a data protection officer to write an email to. You can't contact support or even unsubscribe from the emails without logging in first. Just terrible.
I do have an old phone that I plan to try this with it's just that it'll be at least a week before I get the phone in my hands as I don't have it with me where I'm at. Also I'll have to work on hiding the fact that it's rooted since the BookWalker app won't run if it is. I'm just trying to make my life easier, that's all 😅
Unless I'm missing something deDRM does not support BookWalker
Agree with you there. It's definitely good to oppose this kind of stuff but I don't think this is switching-to-another-browser bad. At least not yet...
