The was brought up as a point of curiosity on Steve Gibson's "Security Now" podcast a few months ago. My recollection is Chrome has the same plan. But the interesting thing is Mozilla surveyed to see who used FTP. It was some fraction of a percent as you can imagine. But later it dawned on me that by survey Mozilla meant the telemetry of Firefox. Telemetry is the first thing I disable on any program where it is possible and I suspect the kind of person who uses FTP in a browser is also the kind of person to nuke the telem. Thus I suspect the "survey" is s bit biased.
So if you nuked the telemetry features of Firefox, you can probably freak Mozilla out by re-enabling the telemetry then using FTP.

I just updated Firefox to version 88, and now "ftp://"; support is disabled by default, and the plan is to remove support in Firefox 90. I've re-enabled it, will have to enjoy it to the max while it lasts... [ Wietse's upstream FTP site for Postfix source tarballs will soon no longer be browser-accessible. :-( ] -- Viktor.
