Firefox Updates Mobile Browser For Android With "~Do Not Track' Privacy Feature

Firefox beta for Android has been updated today with the ability for users to turn on the "Do Not Track" privacy feature, making it one of the first mobile browsers to offer the privacy option. Mozilla's Do Not Track allows users to have more control over how their browsing behavior is tracked and used online. When the feature is enabled, Firefox will tell advertising networks and other websites and applications that you want to opt-out of third-party tracking for purposes like behavioral advertising. Basically, Mozilla implements an HTTP header that Firefox users can elect to send that tells ad networks they don't want to be tracked.
