Hi there,

I wanted to migrate from the default Ubuntu Firefox snap installation to a deb-package-based one using the instructions on the official help site.

I do not just import keys without examining them first, so I had a look at the key from packages.mozilla.org:

pub  rsa2048/C0BA5CE6DC6315A3
     created: 2021-05-04  expires: never       usage: SC  
     trust: unknown       validity: unknown
 [ unknown] (1). Artifact Registry Repository Signer <[email protected]>

Now, what I don't understand is the identity containing a reference to Google instead Mozilla: "Artifact Registry Repository Signer [email protected]"

Could somebody help me understand that?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Well, perfect: I'm a Firefox user because I trust Google so much... 😉 ☹️
