To: Second Amendment First; aquila48
I have NOT gotten rid of Firefox, nor will I. My reasons are simple:

- While I find what Mozilla did gutless and despicable, there is not ONE (1) browser alternative that isn't run by a company just as bad - and in some instances worse.

- Microsoft has had ‘domestic partner’ benefits programs in place for over a decade.

- Besides being gay friendly, Google is clearly anti-Christian and downright anti-American. And engaged in more spying than the NSA.

- If you will add ‘Ghostery’ and ‘No Script’ to Firefox, set them both on ‘kill everything’ you will come as close as possible to being able to surf anonymously. Yes, because of these blocking actions some web sites won't work properly, but screw them.

(And for the record, at this moment while I am on Free Republic, Google Analytics, tidynetwork, and vlamac are all being blocked.)

If you really want to support only those companies that support man and woman marriage, you may as well just shut the computer off and walk away. If you aren't ready to give up on the Internet, then from the bad choices available you might as well choose the one that gives you the most protection.

I get that, but not sure that there’s not ONE browser alternative.

What is your issue with Opera? I switched to that and find it way faster than Firefox was and it supports extensions, including Ghostery (which I have used for quite some time now).

Sadly, you’re right...

However, it’s still worth shooting at the target that is currently most visible and in range - right now it’s Firefox.

Search for Pale Moon. It uses the Mozilla source code, but states that it is in NO way affiliated with Mozilla. The add-ons work too (along with greasemonkey, if you ise that here).
