Why am I seeing these stories in the Firefox New Tab?
Firefox elevates stories that are informative, inspiring, and offer unique perspectives. Our curation team selects these stories from a diverse range of publications known for trustworthy and accurate coverage. The goal is to feature content that appeals to a broad audience while avoiding overly generalized or “clickbait” material.
Are these stories personalized for me?
Most recommendations on your New Tab come from a general list of top stories. We are exploring ways to offer personalized recommendations while protecting your privacy. Mozilla never receives a copy of your browser history.
If you opt for personalization (like choosing favorite topics), recommendations may involve a hybrid process where much of the sorting and filtering happens locally in your Firefox browser. Mozilla servers use non-personally identifiable information to assist with overall ranking.
Why do some stories have a “sponsored by” label?
Mozilla partners with select publishers and brands to offer you sponsored stories. These stories are always clearly marked as “sponsored”, so you know they’re paid content.
If you don’t want to see a sponsored story, click the 
button next to it and select . For more details on opting out of sponsored stories, see Pocket sponsored stories on new tabs.
Why do I see stories with older publication dates?
Not all great stories are published within the last 24 hours. Mozilla is committed to highlighting the best content on the web, regardless of when it was published.
Why am I seeing stories that are behind a paywall?
Occasionally, you might encounter articles from sites that use paywalls. We aim to recommend content that’s not behind hard paywalls, but some sites with soft paywalls may be included.
Our mission is to connect you with the best stories on the web. While paywalls can be frustrating, they are sometimes necessary to support high-quality journalism. If you encounter a paywall, it might be because you’ve reached your free article limit. You can choose to subscribe to the publisher or move on to another article.
