Maximum PC: Johnathan Nightingale is stepping down as Mozilla's vice president of Firefox and leaving the company effective March 31. Before he leaves, he wants you to know that Firefox is in a good place, that "2014 was an incredible year," and that Mozilla today is stronger than it's ever been. He also knows that his departure will have people questioning all those things and will bring out the trolls.
Mozilla is bringing Firefox to Microsoft’s Windows store today. Firefox is one of the first third-party alternatives available in the Microsoft Store, and it’s using its own Gecko browser engine instead of Chromium alternatives like Opera or the many other alternatives that leverage Microsoft’s Edge webview.
If you're using any of these four extensions from Avast or AVG on Mozilla Firefox or Chrome, they are collecting way too much data.
Mozilla Firefox may be planning to turn out a "Super Private Browsing" (SBP) mode that could provide users with true anonymity.
