     @maiyannah This is after the fucked up extensions and the browser in general for a lot of people.
     
     It sort of reminds me of that time Microsoft were trying to insert plugins into other company's browsers.

     @maiyannah I'm still waiting for them to give up the charade about Mozilla being independent and merging it into Google proper. I mean, it's not like they whole world doesn't know where Mozilla gets its money from.
