a) Mozilla Location services are used when using the automatic time night color feature. KDE's data provider's geolocation module does the request b) I opened a report a while ago which address this issue: 419677 I fully agree, that no unapparent third party requests should be made. You can disable the third party request by manually specifiyng the location you are at. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 419677 *** |
Created attachment 126371 [details] location.services.mozilla.com I go to System Settings -> Display and Monitor -> Display Configuration and popup appears telling me that something is wrong with an SSL request to location.services.mozilla.com I tested with a few other settings entries, bit it is consistently the Display and Monitor entry that pops the error (and a rather useless at that -- what is one to do with "NO, there were errors: Unknown error" anyway?). a) why is the display setup causing a request to location.services.mozilla.com? b) why is Plasma issuing a request to location.services.mozilla.com at all without asking for consent prior to it?
