Mozilla's Anti-Gift Guide Rates Presents With the Worst Privacy Violations

Among the most intrusive products are the Facebook Portal, Amazon Echo Dot and Peloton Bike

The nonprofit Mozilla Foundation has released one of the few holiday gift guides focused on products not to get your friends and family this holiday season—especially if they are at all concerned with digital privacy.

The advocacy group identified 47 products this year that failed to meet basic standards for electronic privacy and security based on an examination of 151 popular connected gifts over the course of about 950 hours. The guide marks the fifth annual iteration of Mozilla’s “Privacy Not Included” holiday product rating project.
