Yeah but if Google keeps removing the ability to block content then Firefox will be more secure simply by filtering dynamic content from unknown domains. Drive by attacks are the most common way to spread malware, this is exactly what extensions like noscript prevent.
This isn't the first time Chrome has crippled user ability to filter content on a deep level.
So it doesn't matter how much hardening Chrome has if it allows for drive by download attacks from unknown domains.
- rfoo 3y agoSure, I just hope people move to contribute hardening features to Firefox, and the first step would be singing out loud that Firefox is not the most secure browser right now. Oh, and I suffer from using NoScript (currently on Chrome, unfortunately) every day, I very much want to have a secure enough browser to not giving me decisions like "do you want to whitelist cdn.jsdelivr.com [1] or click four times for each page you read". [1] It distributes arbitrary shit on github, so good luck whitelisting this "known" domain.
