It is not overblown. Many of us powerusers / influencers stood by Firefox because of privacy. Latest failures have damaged my trust considerably. To add insult to injury I don't see an apology or anything similar from Mozilla (or callahad here on hn) that would show me they understand the extent of this issue - how badly they f* up on how many occasions. It's ironic, right when browser can finally stand next to Chrome in terms of performance...

  Maybe you can’t have chrome-like performance without chrome-like privacy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Then people need to learn to slow down and back off - my privacy is a major part of my time's value. I will gladly spend a few half-seconds longer to be more private and more secure on an XUL-based browser rather than ever use an insecure WebExtensions-backed multi-process mess that accesses the Web without my consent or control.

  Do you really think your opinion represent the opinion of power users? Do you really believe you're an influencer?
