Mozilla firefox 60 will show sponsored content

Firefox has been growing remarkably in the market in recent months. Mozilla has been trying for a while to bring its browser closer to Google Chrome in market share. We currently have version 59 of the browser, but some details about version 60 have already been revealed, and users may not like them. Since sponsored content will be shown in new tabs.

Mozilla Firefox 60 will show sponsored content

Back in January they started talking about these plans to introduce sponsored content. But it looked like they weren't going to move on. Although the latest news seems to say just the opposite in this regard.

Sponsored content in Firefox

Specifically, what the browser would introduce would be occasional sponsored content in the recommendation section in new tabs. Also, it looks like it will be a feature that will not be available at startup in all countries. Rather, it will spread over time to new markets. For now, Firefox 60 will officially arrive on May 9.

Despite the introduction of this measure, the browser will continue to give priority to the privacy of users above all. In addition, they clarify that its approach allows customization at all times. So the user's privacy is not in danger.

So users with Firefox 60 will be able to disable these contents if they wish, so that they will not be annoying. We will have to wait until next week for this version of the browser to arrive and see how they integrate. What do you think about the company's decision?
