I constantly feel the need to argue with this dumb fuck and his 99% wrong opinions. I usually have to take a step back, remember it's not worth it, and then move on. It would be a great help if I had a Firefox add-on that precedes all of musk's tweets with "retard weighing in: ", just as a reminder that he's also allowed a point of view, despite his mental issues.

Irrelevant question ahead->

I have read that Google is dumb and potentially malware carrying extensions sometimes slip through their security and onto the chrome store. Is it true and how does it apply to Firefox

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago

This is true and also an issue for Firefox.

It is difficult to address, and if the extension isn’t open source you should be especially careful.

That said there are extensions with security reviews performed by the Mozilla foundation and you can see that on the extension page.
