The Firefox fox cutting its branch thanks to Mozilla and with the help of a chainsaw brought by the AI bird.

We won’t sell you data, pinky promise… - in early 2025 a formal Firefox Terms of Use was introduced, which included a clause granting Mozilla a “non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence” to use user-entered data.

What I do want to put the focus on, however, is that you have to perform an audit of your product every so often and see how the people using your product have changed, and what kind of functionality that made sense at the time may not make much sense anymore.

• load images automatically
• enable JS
• turn-off the navigation toolbar
• turning off SSL & TLS
• certificate manager
• override automatic cache management

The people that need to do these things should use add-ons, or at the very least an about:config tweak.

Focus2console is a Firefox extension to display the tag and its attributes in the browser console. This can be useful in case of loss of focus (due to CSS or JS).
