This is a link to a diff of Firefox where the FAQ are stored in a structured way. In the diff it can be seen that the question “Does Firefox sell your personal data?” has been removed:

        {  
            "@type": "Question",  
            "name": "Does Firefox sell your personal data?",  
            "acceptedAnswer": {  
                "@type": "Answer",  
                "text": "Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from  
                        many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed  
                        to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "  
            }  
        },

People in the comments are asking if the definition of the word “neven” has been changed or what’s going on.

      Fakespot and Firefox are different products. They should stay that way.

      It’s fine that Fakespot needs to collect some data from users to do the thing it does, and probably necessary for it to monetize that data to have a sustainable funding model. I don’t want it to sell a profile about me to advertising partners, so I don’t use it.

      Firefox can function as a web browser without transferring any information about me off my local machine except that which I explicitly tell it to send to specific websites.
