What worries me really is not the 'Firefox' folder name but its contents, ie
/etc/firefox/pref/apturl.js, especially the javascript file named apturl.js
There are two folders for IceCat and Abrowser both having files named
syspref.js, which also resides in /etc path.
I am *NOT* against including javascript in programs, if they are free:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html *BUT* from a privacy
point of view (as browsers can work on JS, and can be manipulated via an
attacker etc.) I feel its my right to understand what is the purpose served
by apturl.js(especially do it directs to an embedded URL, can be accessed by
an external process etc.)
Thank you in advance for input
