This is a thread about firefox, when you make an answer entirely about chrome. This is neither the place nor the time for your rant.

- coldtea 12y agoThere are no hard and fast rules about threads. A thread about Firefox is also a thread to discuss web browsers in general, the web, html, etc.
- dmix 12y agoIt is very relevant. Both Chrome and Firefox are getting extremely bloated and feature-creeped. Besides bloat/performance/quality, each new feature is a new security attack vector [0]. This is a very valid discussion. Software engineers would naturally have concerns when a browser built to render web pages gets turned into a pseudo operating system. The risk here is that without focus it won't be a good browser nor a good OS.

- azakai 12y agoThis, however, is just a little UI over WebRTC, an existing feature that is accessible to web content already. Hello doesn't add any significant area for new security attacks. It's possible your argument could be against adding WebRTC itself, instead of Hello, but the topic here is Hello.
