Firefox Web Browser Will Now Let You Delete Your Collected Data

Firefox Web Browser Will Now Let You Delete Your Collected Data to comply with the latest California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

Firefox Web Browser will now let you delete all the data it collects in its forthcoming version (Firefox 72) rolling out on January 7. This is a part of the company is taking this step to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which came into effect on January 1.
In view of the above for several years the company firefox is collecting users' data through the browser or by the apps and online services, a lot of data about users is being collected. This is used for marketing purposes so that advertisers know what kind of ads to serve to us. by this major update, the company has stepped down and made a way to delete all the collected personal data of the users.
Mozilla said in a blog post on Tuesday, 

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) expands the rights of Californians over their data – and provides avenues for the Attorney General to investigate and enforce those rights, as well as allowing Californians to sue. Californians now have the right to know what personal information is being collected, to access it, to update and correct it, to delete it, to know who their data is being shared with, and to opt-out of the sale of their data.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is similar to the  Europes General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which gives a right to people in California to know and control personal data collected by websites.
Mozilla perceives that they already collected very little information on its users and that the data they collect is called as “telemetry” data, which implies that this data is basically used to improve the performance and security of Firefox. 
However, the company perceives that if users are still uncomfortable with them collecting it, they can go ahead and delete it.
On the other side, all the other major tech companies have also changed their company privacies to comply with the California Consumer Act (CCPA). recently, Google Adsense announced its latest CCPA update to all its publishers and advertisers.
