firefox will now track your searches by default and you'd have no way of knowing they're doing that unless you look for this random blog post on their website: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-search-update/

it does look like you can turn it off at least.

incroyable_anis,

@hi_mayank au moins ça peut être désactivé mais la majorité des utilisateurs ne le saura pas sauf si c'est clairement expliqué quand il lance Firefox

@hi_mayank It's not enabled by default on mine.

@hi_mayank every day leaves me a little bit more likely to give up computers and return to smoke signals

@Jennifer @hi_mayank
I'm a long-time Firefox user and I just went in to check my privacy settings. I had previously denied them permission to do any tracking, and the update that installed last night did not override my choices. First thing folks new to Firefox should do is set their privacy settings. If you've previously blocked tracking those settings remain unchanged with the latest update.
