Safeguards Privacy - "Firefox is made under the principle that security and privacy are fundamental and must not be treated as optional."
Mozilla is certainly treating the cookie management dialog box, which has been broken for years, as optional. Same with accepting Mike Perry's patches and various other examples.
If Mozilla could actually do better in terms of privacy and security features than a handful of Tor Browser Bundle devs, they wouldn't need efforts like this and their work would speak for itself. I still use Mozilla code every day and am grateful for their work, but this sort of rhetoric is unimpressive.
- r3bl 10y agoYup, this seems a bit ironic coming from the foundation that recently introduced the Sync feature (which shits on the privacy section) and made no serious security enhancements in their browser for quite some time.
- jmcomets 10y agoCould you elaborate on the Sync feature? I was under the impression that Sync now uses Firefox accounts and can't see how it would affect privacy.
