Re: State of Web Browser Accessibility
I don't care about political drive behind my programs or government funded corperations and what their motives are, if they are all as constantly bad and far reaching as people say, nothing I do will really change that anyway, and they collect so much useless data that mine won't matter any more than the next 50 million peoples data, it's a paranoid headache to constantly worry about, and mostly just a thing for people with way too much time on their hands to freak out about on forum topics and comment sections, and if you do simple things like clean out temp data and only run java and flash when you need it you have very little to worry about anyway security wise, I just want to brouze, not learn how to make bombs, if a swat team shows up at my house, I'll either get shot, tasered, and or thrown in prison or I won't, but probably not either way, I'm not running an enterprise network here so why the hell should I care about all this?
I onl y use VPN's to get around local security restrictions, if I'm torrenting with bit torrent sync I take some basic extra procautions just because everyone else seems to overly enjoy doing that, but unless your ISP is watching you like a hawk you never even need it unless your stupid enough to do it in an office or school or something.
Yeah I totally agree that Firefox can be really heavy on processors, but the relatively simple stuff I've done to mine makes it load everything and log me into Webvism, put me on google and load my 20 something plugins in under 10 seconds on a 2.13ghz dual core 2mb l3, 4gb 800mhz ram 2007 toshiba running win 7 64 with default services and 750 to 1.25 gb physical ram with 20 to 30 average CPU usage at startup.
If I can do that with minimal effort with out being on win 8 and only have a first gen I3 processor, than anything other than grandpappy's old special addition underclocked crapbox1000, 1hz non logic al single core, 1 bit l1 cash only, 1b 1024 channel ram, running binary a ssembly alpha 0.01 with 99.99 ram and CPU usage on boot, probably can too.
If these plugins weren't so easy to install I mean hell they come from the site most of them and lots don't even require a restart... I might agree with you on Firefox being out of the accessibility running, but aside from being slow by default and sucking with JAWS which is completely not Firefox's fault, it's already good with accessibility out of the box.
Jason most of my stuf I got from life hackers collection on the addon's page on the Mozilla site, the rest I got from another collection, it's a really popular one should be in the top 10 or what ever it is that show up by default, it's like must have extentions or something?

MM yeah I also agree that the dumbed down Firefox options are annoying and so is the inability to stop Java, though, you can actually do that through the addons section under the plugins, and same with flash and it does it just fine, it's just not super simple like others but to me it is...
