The more extensions you install in your browser, the more easier is to track your behavior on internet.

Not saying it’s a better implementation, but Safari already does this.

I'll be impressed when they actually allow for the installation of extensions from places other than their addon store like I can on the desktop version. Maybe in another 5 years, if Mozilla lasts that long.

That's nice,but it would have been great to get certificates into Firefox mobile. Those are exclusive to Chrome browsers and that sucks.
