Privacy-Preserving Attribution – Auto Opt In (support.mozilla.org)

Just updated librewolf to 128 on Mx-linux and it does not include Privacy-Preserving Attribution option.

Less than a month after acquiring the AdTech company Anonym, Mozilla has added special software co-authored by Meta and built for the advertising industry directly to the latest release of Firefox, in an experimental trial you have to opt out of manually. This "Privacy-Preserving Attribution" (PPA) API adds another tool to the arsenal of tracking features that advertisers can use, which is thwarted by traditional content blocking extensions.

Not Privacy-Preserving!
