Debian had a really good solution to this problem -- they just called Firefox "Iceweasel". I don't even remember what they were mad about but it makes me giggle every time it shows up.
- fiddlerwoaroof 5y agoMozilla didn't release the Firefox branding under the same license as the rest of Firefox (and, iirc, the branding license was non-free per the DFSG). So, Debian forked Firefox, Thunderbird and a couple other things and replaced all the branding with the Ice* names and icons. Mozilla eventually gave up and so Debian now distributes Firefox with the Firefox name and branding.
