It seems that you can’t only send messages, but intercept messages received. It can grant attacker access to all of your services that verify your identity with SMS code.

This is true for existing user with wrong password, but that message would be wrong if the user doesn't exist. In this case, the error clearly would be the username, not the combination user+pass.

I notice they ask financial donations but not help with development. Since we are developers and not investors, we are much more capable of donating our time. What makes code contribution not useful (or irrelevant) in comparison to money in

It’s not a guess. Phones with removable batteries are thicker than “unibody” phones. Sorry but that’s kind of obvious. If you need a reference: https://www.cnet.com/news/its-time-to-kiss-that-removable-sm...

It’s very sad that they reset some privacy preferences on updates. It can be explained by incompetence or bad faith, but coming from Mozilla I'd rather assume incompetence.

Do you have any evidence that majority of left parties members doesn’t support Venezuelan government despite the officials statements? The truth is that every major left party in Brazil supports Maduro (PT, PSOL, PCB, PCdoB, PDT, …). Sure t

If people are licensing a proprietary work as open source, they are in trouble, not you. What if Netflix actually bought/licensed the image from a third-party that stole from the original author?
