I agree.

Imagine a world where Chrome doesn't exist and instead Firefox + privacy preserving attribution is the default for all of the people who won't listen to your reasons why they shouldn't use chrome or say "I don't need privacy, I have nothing to hide".

It seems like Mozilla is trying to do the browser equivalent of shifting the overton window and I'm for that.

However I'll be monitoring them very very closely.
