These links were helpful. I learned that Firefox, by default, sends the web addresses we visit to Cloudflare. They are given "the ability to see users' queries." Because I have turned away from sin, I have nothing to hide, so it doesn't really matter for me. But since Cloudflare already has so much power and control over the internet, I disabled DNS over HTTPS.

Mozilla has investigated Mozilla and Mozilla has determined you can totally trust Mozilla.

Well sure it's their partner but if you're not using a VPN, your ISP and anyone on the wifi network you're connected to can see all of your requests. They can't see the request data over SSL, but can see the URLs. So use a VPN if you're concerned about privacy.

Your ISP records all your requests and most likely sells your data to advertising targeting companies.

Weird deflex, but ok. Tell me something I haven't heard from the 9,001 ads for Nord VPN that run every day.
