Adam, I agree it's still one of the better actors, but the better actor bar 
keeps lowering every year.

Mozilla has progressively redefined its "protect users of the internet" goal to 
"protect the communication between users and websites", and given how powerful 
javascript is nowadays that actually means "protect the right of websites to 
abuse users as they wish". They will lobby for any web standard extension 
pushed by cloud giants on the grounds it makes the internet better, without any 
thought for the effects of those extensions on protection of users from abusive 
websites.

Looking Glass is typical of this mindset: the server/cloud-side defines the 
rules, in that case server/cloud-side == Mozilla marketing, why should it 
constrain itself when it fights all year long to give the same power to any 
random website?

Regards,
