@jeena@freeguru He really is. He was once a vaguely sane FOSS industry commentator. Then he lost/left his job, and had to monetise his blog & channel. Result: 90% of it is frothing hatred and insanity.

Firefox & Thunderbird Collect User Data by Default (in Violation of European Law)
Not going to watch a video. I am gathering from comments on the youtube video that he is taking about telemetry data. You can check out e.g. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-telemetry.

How have you been burned? In any practical way?
I don’t trust Bryan Lunduke as a source. He fell into QAnon conspiracy-type stuff and MAGA politics. Not a sign of good judgment.
I knew he was a shithead, but I didn’t realise how much of one.
