...For now. Looks like they're going to get rid of it too (which makes sense, because they copy Chromium's codebase).

I think that's the point: Google has been shutting down Manifest V2 extensions one step at a time, and it's been experimenting with anti-ad-block tech on YouTube with one user group at a time.
With all due respect, Mozilla is now (and, for a while, has been) an ad company. When an ad company tells you ads are necessary, you should not trust them. Plenty of lousy things have been entrenched as social norms, but it is the job of the entrenchers to justify their existence... Which Mozilla is definitely not doing here.
If I need to fudge info, I tend to put it into a password database's "notes" field for easier note-keeping, FWIW.
Not a full-on identity, but bits of info like stated name, address, etc.
Extremely intended! They built a model to lie and a surrogate model to say the first model was being truthful.
They called it LaundryML.
Considering the news about OneRep... Definitely steer clear of Mozilla's scrubbing service.
OneRep is what Mozilla uses to remove your data from the internet, if you pay them for Monitor Plus.
Didn't somebody make a biased AI and a laundering AI to say it wasn't biased, just to demonstrate how easy it was to do?
All those points are about how one server communicates with itself. Federation doesn't factor into it
Oh yeah, you can do that too. I just never have it for apps I want to clone.
In the meme, yeah. There are others though:

Acceptable Ads is bullshit on many levels:
uBlock Origin, or at least uBlock Origin Lite on Chromium-like browsers, are must-haves.
The best browser you can set up for a family member, IMO, is Firefox. Disable Telemetry (which should rid them of Mozilla's own ad scheme too), install uBlock Origin, remind them to never call or trust any other tech support people who reach out to them, and maybe walk them through some scam baiting videos.
I'm still evaluating which Chrome-likes are best at actual ad blocking, and the landscape is grim.
