I really hope you're interpreting that the right way, but I've found it's generally futile to assume the best from any legal document. I'd be happy to get proven wrong, though, especially by Mozilla themselves!

That's the real problem with legalese. It comes off as precise, but the wording is actually vague, vague enough to screw you somewhere, and enough to cover their ass in too many ways. Like reading the above comment makes absolute sense with what's in there. At the same time it also makes absolute sense if they wanted to start selling our search histories to the highest bidder.
