It seems that Mozilla now contains code that copies each url you visit
into a OS readable textfile that can then be read by anyone on the
internet (particulary Media Matrix). This seems to mean that anyone
could know exactly which sites you are visiting. If this doesn't scare
you, i don't know what will. It scares the crap out of me.
Allthough many OS's are easy to spy on, that is no excuse for making it
even easier by putting spyware into Mozilla.
If you agree, please visit the bug that is trying to get the spy code
out of Mozilla and into the Nestscape tree (aparently Netscape/AO-HELL
doesn't care about people spying on us, but i intend to always use
Mozilla anyways).
