Except thats not what mozilla is worried about at all. I suggest improving your reading skills. I've noticed they're causing you issues.
i suggest you do, and when you are at the school, take a writing class while you are at it.
you didn't really do good job explaining what you object to. what exactly is mozilla not worried about?
Its in the first paragraph. So no, a warning wouldn't suffice. Jfc. Read
And yes, I know it's open source and someone can remove the block, but Mozilla and other companies can still be forced to put it there and leave it up to users to figure out. They probably can give vague instructions, but they probably have to avoid too much detail to stay out of legal trouble. What level of understanding do you have of the world outside your parents' house?
so that's... what they are not worried about? that is like whole purpose of the petition. for person sending other to reading class, you really have a problem with that. you don't have to reply to that, welcome to my block list.
Oh my goodness. Blocking websites in a browser is a lot different than saying "not recommended". I'm telling you what they are worried about versus your dumbass interpretation. Context clues may help you. I had already told you what they're not worried about. I can only assume you're not this dumb and see just trolling in bad faith now.
His argument is you post "this browser is not legal in France" and just ignore their awful laws.
Which probably isn't actually enough. But if you geofence France away that probably would be.
