So, if the code's open source and end users can't detect spying, on what factual basis do you know they do (spying on users, that is)?

But what is your factual basis for your assertion that some type of spying is going on in Firefox? (Particularly since this is not a Microsoft browser, and in fact is built with open-source code that anyone can inspect.)
