[Bug 1489476] Re: Feature request - To have an option not to share Firefox health report with Mozilla (but still generate it for the user to see)

[Nikita Yerenkov-Scott]

** Description changed:

  It would be nice if like in the Windows and Mac version in Firefox, for
- the Linux version of Firefox to also have the ability for you to select
- that you don't want to send the Firefox health report to Mozilla, but
- you still want to have it generated for you to see.
+ the Linux version of Firefox to also have the option in the normal
+ about:preferences to turn off data sharing of the Firefox Health Report,
+ as you can do this in about:healthreport, but it is not very obvious
+ there so it would be nice if there was an option here too:
+ about:preferences#advanced
+ 
+ Another thing on this matter is that when you disable data sharing in
+ about:healthreport, the tick box in about:preferences#advanced becomes
+ unticked, but as the tick box is meant to enable and disable both data
+ sharing and the actual generation of the report, it is misleading to
+ have it unticked, instead there should be a separate tick box there for
+ this option. It also means that one can think that their report
+ generation is not on, but in fact the data sharing has just been
+ disabled there. This also means that when one disables data sharing
+ there, they have no way to disable the entire report generation thing
+ because the box in the normal area become unticked.

** Summary changed:

- Feature request - To have an option not to share Firefox health report with Mozilla (but still generate it for the user to see)
+ Firefox should have separate tick box for disabling of data sharing of the Firefox Health Report in the normal preferences area
