Today, I updated my Firefox, and had a new icon on my toolbar: pocket. I took at quick look at the ToS and privacy policy; here is my tl;dr:
Read it Later, Inc. is collecting a lot of intimate information and is tracking you.
When you share something through Pocket with a friend, the emails contains spying material using malware-like techniques to track your friends.
They are sharing those information with trusted third parties (Could be anyone they are doing business with.).
The policy might change, and it's your responsibility to check Pocket's website to see if it has.
[...] The Pocket implementation is not an extension (while it was available as an extension), it's implemented in Firefox. You can not remove it, only disable it, by going in about:config, since this option is not available in the preferences menu.
What the hell is pocket? on Mozilla's site:
The Pocket for Firefox button lets you save web pages and videos to Pocket in just one click. Pocket strips away clutter and saves the page in a clean, distraction-free view and lets you access them on the go through the Pocket app. All you need is a free account, an Internet connection and the Pocket button.

Well, he said that people will scream it after a vulin shows up. A vulin is a demonic creature that does severe damage to anyone who says "have" in its vicinity. Therefore it is good advice to avoid saying "have" when a vulin shows up. Since "of" is similar enough that people will understand you, but different enough that it won't cause the demon to target you, it is a good replacement for "have" when a vulin is around. Of course people who don't know it already, will learn that the hard way when the vulin shows up, so they quickly will adapt and avoid saying "have", too. Therefore when a vulin shows up, people will not say "you should have updated" because that would make them the target of the vulin. Rather to protect themselves from the vulin, they will say "you should of updated", just as claimed in the post you replied to.
