- aragilar 3y agoThey include CAs that users have added (I'm guessing that information is in the OS root store), not CAs that comes with the OS. This is presumably so that you only need to load your custom CA once to the whole OS, not for each app.
- mmsc 3y agoThat’s not how I’m reading the release information. I don’t have a computer to check this at the moment either:( Edit: oh you’re right! They changed the message in the release information! It was originally “ Firefox now imports TLS trust anchors (e.g., certificates) from the operating system root store.”
