I'm inundated with these messages and I can't even load linkedin.com now. How do I turn these "safety features" off? Why are there like only 8 options under privacy and security when and I know for a fact that firefox has configured 100+ behind the scenes? Whatever happened to the concept of the advanced options button? Yes I know I can do about:config but now I need to to search for and know the name of the options I want to change. If it can be configured why not make it accessible? Why hide configuration options? If options are hard to access then are defacto not options and are not really configurable. What they really are is soft-coded parameters to configure the behavior of the program at run-time as determined by the devoloper and not the user. As a developer I don't understand this. I want my programs to be as configurable as possible. Its all about how you present the options that matters. So by hiding these parameters that control reloading and redirect Mozilla is in fact saying that I shall use their program in the manner that they deem safe. Unless I jump through hoops to reconfigure the run-time behaviour that is. I know no-one has a gun to my head to use Firefox but I don't understand where this hubris comes from. Is Firefox about being an open-source browser or is is about being an open source experience?
