smdh @ more Firefox BS.

"Firefox was created in 2002 under the codename 'Phoenix' by members of the Mozilla community who desired a standalone browser rather than the Mozilla Application Suite bundle."

Remember those halcyon Phoenix days? I do.

They were all too short lived.

Now even Firefox forks such as @librewolf seem to be sitting on their thumbs, thinking maybe it's sufficient to merely option out offending lines of code.

Have decades of return to libc exploits meant nothing to developers?!

If you aren't going to branch to the code, don't leave it in the source! It is an attack surface laying dormant whether you realize it or not.

Is it more work? Sure.

Do the work!

LibreSSL didn't rip out tens of thousands of lines from OpenSSL without good reasons.

The dividends have been appreciable.
