[Tails-dev] Sound in the Unsafe Browser

2012-09-30 Thread intrigeri
Hi, this was pushed to devel: f6dba62 Enable sound in the Unsafe Browser. I beg to disagree. My belief is that us actively making the Unsafe Browser work for more uses than what we want it to be used (in a manner supported by us) sends a contradictory message to our users, and weakens the
