I liked Firefox for years. I have lived through years of shenanigans such as broken extensions, forgetting what tabs I had open because Firefox accidentally closed without restoring them, moving icons and menus around for no reason, and recently, an update on my Ubuntu that broke scrolling of pages (with PgUp/PgDown). And now this.. I am starting to think that they just don't want people to use Firefox. Yeah, I know it's free software, so I have no right to complain. I just wonder why?

Where governments and corporations are concerned, the "why" condenses down to two simple answers: commercialization(profit) or weaponization(control)... it is easily conceivable that both will result over time. I hope Tor & EFF start giving more love to Pale Moon & it's ilk, but that may just be mitigating the inevitable death by 1000 cuts to privacy.
