What new risks would this expose users to that they are not already exposed to via the webRequest permission and the https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/tabs/executeScript API? It seems to me that extensions can already get pretty much full control of the user's browsing experience. Is possibly enabling MITM _really_ any worse than that? _______________________________________________ dev-security-policy mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security-policy
