Well you ask a good question, but the examples they give ("optional ads" and "sponsored suggestions") only necessarily imply sharing some aggregates.

Like, for example, "we have this many users in this, that and that countries" - information which ads brokers might require to draw up a contract.

I suppose this is a change from the original "never and nothing" promise, but still a fair distance from the idea of selling of data that most people would imagine, like tracking and sharing your individual browser history.

[I guess I'm biased in favor of Mozilla. If they kick it, among full-featured browser engines only Chromium remains.]

Well, I can see why sharing aggregates will be required, but then they go and explicitly say that share aggregates _or_ share data stripped of PI _or_ share data via "privacy preserving technologies". The latter two options sound exactly like selling the data that most people would imagine.

And note that they don't tell anything about future or current data usage, they are just giving _examples_, which are, by definition, not the whole set. For all that I know they might be selling slightly stripped data already or plan to start very soon - the message does not contradict this.
