Is this more than a reskinning of Have I Been Pwned?
- kibwen 8y agoIt's basically an effective way to get HIBP out in front of more people. The announcement from Troy Hunt's side: https://www.troyhunt.com/were-baking-have-i-been-pwned-into-firefox-and-1password/ https://www.troyhunt.com/were-baking-have-i-been-pwned-into-... : "This is major because Firefox has an install base of hundreds of millions of people which significantly expands the audience that can be reached once this feature rolls out to the mainstream. [...] I'm really happy to see Firefox integrating with HIBP in this fashion, not just to get it in front of as many people as possible, but because I have a great deal of respect for their contributions to the technology community. [...] They've also been instrumental in helping define the model which HIBP uses to feed them data without Mozilla disclosing the email addresses being searched for."
