Hello, smart people. Filling out an online form to volunteer for something, Firefox’s Facebook-fence icon appeared on the email field. Confused, I clicked on its question mark. On the next page, Mozilla wanted to sell me Firefox relay for $7/mo. (That’s their VPN + email masking + phone masking.) I used my yandex.ru email address instead for $0. Here’s the question: is Facebook really able to track me because I’ve signed up to volunteer for Cornel West (setting aside the FB-Russia blockage issue)? Thanks.

I didn’t sign up for Yandex instead. I’ve had a Yandex account for a long time. Also, your comments aren’t clear, but I don’t care. 'Bye.
Firefox relay is about hiding your existing email from advertising and spam. It’s not an email provider like Yandex, Google, or Microsoft
I knew that, but thanks. FF’s advertisement hit me out of left field and offered things I already have. I’ve got Proton’s new PW manager, which offers email aliases, but I’m used to doing it the old way.
But how is Firefox supposed to know what you have?
