Sorry for hijacking this thread, but does Webmynd ignore history in Privacy Mode ?

Even though I'm a Safari user, Webmynd is a pretty good reason to get back to Fx. My sources (in order) are: Wikipedia, Delicious, Twitter, HNews, Reddit.

I would like to have GitHub as a source (even though it might only be interesting to developers). Also you could make an anonymous data collection for statistics, I would happily opt-in.

WebMynd does allow you to store and search web history, but you can turn it off whenever you like and completely disable it in our settings panel.

In fact our setup wizard asks whether you want web history search or not right up front. And our custom extensions for Twitter, Hacker News and others have it disabled by default.

To be clear, we never share history data, even in aggregate, or use it for any other purpose than giving you better search results.

I know about disabling it, but I would like to still be enabled when I'm not in privacy mode.

I have complete confidence in your privacy, that is why I said I will opt-in if you would like to gather data to improve your product.
