I support this, but not enough to give my name and email to Mozilla to sign a petition. Am I being paranoid?

Dear Mozilla, don't route all our dns request to Cloudflare. We don't need more centralisation like Facebook, but decentralisation like Mastodon.

Mozilla are absolutely correct to ask for this. Luckily the Facebook Container keeps Facebook out of my browsing habits.

At the same time Facebook doesn't really give a fuck what Mozilla, you, or the EU, have to say. Maybe Mozilla is attempting to raise awareness with this petition, instead of getting Facebook to stop.

Isn't this an option you have to turn on manually?

Are you talking about DNS over https?

And you can set another provider, Cloudflare is the default, though.
