If you’re a Firefox user, you might see more ads on your homepage tiles.
No one likes advertisements, but the truth is, ads are what keep our favorite services and apps available, and now Mozilla is trying to find a way to keep ads alive but also maintain your privacy.
The Firefox browser has homepage tiles where you can customize what you see there, and according to a new announcement from adMarketplace, it will soon be a place for advertisers to display ads, too. The press release detailed a new partnership between Mozilla and adMarketplace that will allow sponsored tiles in Firefox’s new tab experience “without compromising user privacy.” How the two companies intend to do this was not detailed in the press release. Lifewire did reach out to adMarketplace for additional details but has not yet received a response.
“The online advertising industry is undergoing significant transformation. Innovation is critically needed so that privacy and advertising can coexist,” said Katherine Bose, Vice President of Business and Corporate Development at Mozilla. “We’re happy to partner with adMarketplace in order to bring these privacy-preserving ad solutions to more advertisers.”
Mozilla also announced a number of new Firefox updates on its dist:lled blog on Monday, including Tab Grouping, Vertical Tabs, and a Sidebar. The company also seems to be continuing to improve privacy settling, performance, and compatibility. You can learn more about those updates on the dist://ed blog detailing all the updates and upcoming changes.
