    Saw a lot of posts on this topic, but this is the first time I am learning the drivers in question are Beta drivers.

      Yeah because it’s harder to bitch and moan about data collection when you’re opting in to a program that is literally for data collection.

          The point of betas/alphas is for testing. They aren’t really to help you out. If they don’t get testing data, there’s no sense in them letting users use it, then complaining about it breaking something and not getting the data to fix it with.

          huh? Of course you can access about:config on stable releases and install addons from outside their website?

          And you installed beta drivers to see if they run better than the latest version. Would have you reported your findings back or just keep it to you?
