While it may be true the "studies" feature which enabled the temporary fix is turned on by default it is a highly contentious feature which many security minded users (isn't that what most firefox users are) have disabled. Yes, it can be turned back on to get the "fix" but I choose not to compromise one form of security to regain another that was lost due to an unfortunate mozilla error. Just the same as I and many others choose to use LTS and the standard release system to minimize risk and maximize stability. I hope the maintainers can understand this.

Firefox pushed a fix via 'Studies' option, but this seems to be disabled by default in Ubuntu builds? When this is disabled, no update is getting pushed! Think we need to get a fix into repositories asap :) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1827727/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
