A recent update to FireFox on Windows included an item that proclaimed "Banish Misinformation". The term "misinformation" has, for the past year or so, become a synonym for any information or facts that are not consistent with "Approved Thought" (see Bureau of Approved Thought, aka Marxism, Leftist). Does this mean that, like Facebook, Twitter, Google, and several other Left-leaning organizations, Mozilla is going to censor information that is not "Approved Thought"?

Thank you, in advance, for your complete, clear, and concise answer.

This has to do with the Pocket service only. You can disable it by following these steps:

1. Navigate to 'about:preferences#home'. 2. Under 'Firefox Home Content', uncheck 'Recommended by Pocket'.
