- vanderZwan 9y agoMy guess is: they are letting the privacy nuts (and I am one) figure out the kinks in the system first before unleashing it on the general public

If webpage owners are too pissed off by Firefox or simply don't make enough revenue from it, they'll stop testing/building their webpage against it, which leads to broken webpages in this way as well.
