Public bug reported: While sure useful as a way to remedy the add-on intermediate signing certificate expiry issue Mozilla has created (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1548973), I really think Normandy should be disabled in Ubuntu by default:
Normandy is a collection of servers, workflows, and Firefox components that enables Mozilla to remote control Firefox clients in the wild based on precise criteria. https://mozilla.github.io/normandy/ Reasoning: Software installed via APT should have defined states, software should not be allowed to change itself, unless the user has actively chosen to enable such functionality and this functionality points out, for the user, that it has this capability. The current default preference (per about:config) is: app.normandy.enabled;true ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1827717 Title: Normandy remote control should be disabled by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1827717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
