Is this real? Firefox just introduced the "Terms of Use" document, that
includes some really disturbing entries.

The Worst Firefox Update Ever

Info from Mozilla:

The "Terms of use" themselves:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/legal/terms/firefox/

Excerpt from ToS: 
> You give Mozilla all rights necessary to operate Firefox, including
> processing data as we describe in the Firefox Privacy Notice,
> as well as acting on your behalf to help you navigate the internet.
> When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby
> grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that
> information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with
> online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox.

Nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to our uploaded data? Is
this some kind of dystopian EU stuff we're dealing with here? Why
suddenly Mozilla felt the need for introducing this (euphemistically
speaking) controversial document?

What's even worse, is this entry from the second link:
> Although we’ve historically relied on our open source license for
> Firefox and public commitments to you, we are building in a much
> different technology landscape today. We want to make these
> commitments abundantly clear and accessible.

What's going on? And most importantly, what is Debian's stance on this? 

Best regards,
