St. Paul, MN, was hacked so badly that the National Guard has been deployed

I mean... For real, I've never heard of Linux systems being hacked this way. I'm sure it's possible, but it certainly seems rarer.

Slipping shit in upstream also certainly doesn't happen "that* often. It takes effort to become recognised enough as a developer to be allowed access to the upstream code, meaning you can't automate those kinds of attacks. (I imagine. Correct me if I'm wrong.)

Oh... That's... Disappointing. Firefox it is, then, for now.

It's weird.. It makes "business" sense, too. If you want people to use your stuff and you can choose to appeal to more people, why wouldn't you? I think we've reached the stage of normalcy now where using "they" and "them" are not in itself something that would necessarily scare away right-wing users (given you want to keep appealing to that attractive market, too.)
