von Firefox-Benutzer 16263539, vor 6 StundenDon't panic, this is a Firefox policy change, not a NordVPN data grab.
NordVPN hasn't introduced any new telemetry, tracking, or background data harvesting. They simply pushed an update to comply with Firefox's new rules. Because this is a premium, account-based service, it naturally handles:
Authentication: Your Nord Account login/email.
Financial Info: Checking your active subscription status so the extension actually works.
Location: Finding the closest, fastest VPN servers to route your traffic.
Chill. It's exactly the same Nord VPN service we've been getting all along.

geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHey, yesterday we had a Firefox extension update approved, and Firefox is now showing broader consent categories for data the extension already used. No new data collection was introduced on our side. The wording may look alarming, but in reality it refers to things like subscription ID/type, payment status, currency, etc. We remain committed to collecting only the minimum data necessary to provide and maintain the service. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Atman, vor 10 Stunden

Private data harvesting... for a privacy related product.
One could start think about if our data is actually private when using Nord products.
If this won't be reverted no way I'm gonna prolong subscription.

Edit: (forbidden URLs: look for ["Announcing data collection consent changes for new Firefox extensions" site:blog.mozilla.org] in search engine)- is what I assume is L.L. referring to.
I'd like to see explanation then why it was collected up until now, just simply policy was not requiring to explicitly be stated up until now.
Can this really, really cannot be avoided?Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHello! To be clear, no new data collection was introduced with yesterday's update. Firefox is now showing broader descriptions for existing data like subscription IDs and payment info. It might look alarming, but we are still focused on data minimization and only use what’s essential to provide the service. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon dg9281, vor 15 StundenAs other commenters mentioned, its started to force privacy data harvesting, including financial information, forms, and payment data.

geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHello there. We understand the concern, but no new data is being collected. Firefox recently updated their consent categories for data the extension already used, such as payment status and subscription type. While the new wording sounds broad, our policy hasn't changed - we only collect the minimum data required to maintain your service. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Krep_O, vor 17 StundenAs other commenters mentioned, it started to force privacy data harvesting.

geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHello! Thanks for noticing. Yesterday's Firefox update changed how permissions are displayed, but we haven't introduced any new data collection. The broad language refers to existing info like your subscription ID and currency. We remain dedicated to privacy and only use the data necessary to keep things working for you. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Firefox-Benutzer 12626933, vor 18 StundenWhile a VPN advertises that you won’t be tracked online, now the VPN itself tracks your financial, payment, and personally identifying info. Brilliant scheme.

geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHi! Just to clarify, our update yesterday didn't add any new data collection. Firefox is simply using broader categories to describe data we’ve always used, like subscription and payment status. The wording can look intense, but we’re still strictly committed to collecting only the bare minimum needed to run the service. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Evade, vor 19 StundenAbsolutely unacceptable for a VPN company to harvest personal information from customers.

geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHello! Thanks for the feedback. Following our update yesterday, Firefox is displaying broader permissions for data we were already using to manage subscriptions and payments. No new data is being collected on our side. We know the language looks broad, but we still only collect the bare minimum required to provide the service. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Cookiz, vor einem TagLatest update asked permissions to gather personal data and payment information, which is unacceptable for a VPN organization.

geschrieben am vor 8 StundenHello! Just wanted to clarify that yesterday’s update didn't introduce any new data collection. Firefox has simply moved to broader consent categories for data we already used, such as subscription type and currency. The new wording can seem alarming, but our commitment to privacy and data minimization remains exactly the same. -L.L. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Greg, vor einem TagThe latest update sneakily forces privacy data harvesting, including financial information, forms, and payment data. This is ridiculous and should be banned.
RE: Stop making this sound harmless. Firefox is clearly asking me to approve new required data collection before the extension can update. I cannot reject these permissions separately, so in practice I either accept the added privacy risk or I cannot install the update.
The warning explicitly mentions personally identifying information, financial and payment information, authentication information, and location. That is not just normal technical wording. If no new data collection was introduced, then explain exactly why Firefox now requires this new consent and why users are being forced to approve it. At the moment it looks like a serious privacy downgrade, and I am not comfortable accepting it.
