Are you a user of Firefox or its derivative browsers (Librewolf, Tor Browser, etc.)?
Please check for important security updates.

Not surprised by the new security vulnerability in Mozilla's PDF.js - patched in latest Firefox. But remind me again why browsers try to render PDFs to begin with?

Displaying PDFs in browsers opens a huge new attack surface. PDFs are complex. Browsers render PDF forms poorly and offer only a limited subset of the many accessibility features provided by dedicated PDF software.

I wish none of the browser makers did this.

La direction de la Foundation me semble difficilement lisible. Ils ont maintenant une "chairwoman", une "executive director", et un président (ancien executive director). C'est quoi la différence entre ces 3 postes ?

When created their new logo with :// in it, the team behind reached out to me and asked if I had any objections since already was using :// in our logo.

I did not object - I approved of it. I think it validated our logo choice and I am jealous they have a name that can hold :// integrated the way they do.

(I was employed by Mozilla at the time)

If you don't use Bing with Edge, Microsoft will tell you your computer needs repairing.

They are not wrong.

To mend your machine:

  1. Ditch Windows
  2. Install Plasma
  3. Your computer is ready.

@kde @kde Guess what, Firefox does the same thing (a refresh will reset your privacy settings and your default browser, all of which affect Mozilla’s revenue streams) but they’re a tad sneakier/cleverer(?) about it.

(Firefox is not private by default so getting you to reset your settings is how they try to influence you to return to their preferred configuration.)

WTF is wrong with the people at ? I don’t care how much they say they’ve anonymized the personal data grabs - this just makes them look like every other privacy-invading enshittified company.

https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-search-update/

Having an understanding of what types of searches happen most frequently will give us a better understanding of what’s important to our users […]

Here’s what’s important to me, as your user: that you don’t spy on my personal activity. You can have that one for free, and nothing else.

Standardmäßig ist Firefox leider nicht besonders datenschutzfreundlich. Wer nicht die Einstellungen durchsuchen möchte und sich nicht bei jeder neuen Version Sorgen über neue Funktionen von Mozilla machen will, kann auf Alternativen zurückgreifen. Zum Beispiel für den Desktop und für Android. Beide Varianten entfernen unter anderem die Telemetrie-Funktionen.

LibreWolf gibt es hier: https://librewolf.net/

I see some people are really disappointed about Debian packaging a stripped-down version of KeePassXC. But hey, I actually wish there was also a minimal @thunderbird package without integrations of IRC or Matrix etc, just with core email functionality.
