Some developer has decide to put Sanitizer code in SeaMonkey (and
Thunderbird by my understanding) to prevent my ability to add sound to
my post in HTML Newsgroups I haven't tested in personal mail but most
likely there.
I am PO wither developers deciding for me what is safe for me to do.
I've been using a Computer since back in the middle 80's. I have a head
on my shoulders and know how to use it. To say I am upset, doesn't
adequately describe it.
So until there is a switch created to bypass it or its removed. I am
sticking with 2.0.6. I've already added my comments to two bugs about this.
If your going to fix stuff. fix legitimate stuff that causes real
problems. Instead of trying to fix none issues. :-<
I could see this more than likely being forced on the developers as a
consequence of the DCMA...can't share music = can't e-mail music ->
can't e-mail sound. More about the money than about "safety", in my
guess...
I wouldn't be very surprised if we start seeing this sort of thing in
more and more e-mail clients. I won't like it either, but I won't be
surprised...
...but I they *could* at least get about fixing the tiny buttons and
properly restoring (i.e. - encrypting the contents) the Forms Manager
for people.
I see it as a concerted by some throw backs who's aim in life is to kill
html mail.
DCMA has nothing to do with. We have a bunch a of people that wish us
all to remain in the 60's-70's
In any case I will continue to use 2.0.6 until it won't work or until
there is switch put in to turn it off.
