Also, as I said before, I REALLY think that Mozilla, Google, Microsoft, Apple and Opera have the right to pursuit their own priorities!

But, they should inform their users. That's it!

Sure, and that's a valid point. But...

No.

That's the whole point. Since the very beginning.

Now, I've never said that they are ignoring me.
I've been banned from Lobsters, after all! ;-)

I've said that they didn't answer this simple question: "Are your users vulnerable to the wide class of attacks described in that bug report?"

They do not have to answer to me, but to their users.


As for me being a troll blending the truth, really: think what you want. :-)

To every body else: you can read the long and complex conversation from which those toots have been extracted here and here (two links, sorry... UI issue).
Just in case you wonder whether there is a troll here...

As for Wladimir Palant (AdBlock CTO!!): I'm sorry, but I was developing the Web, before AdBlock was thing. When JavaScript was a toy and Flash and Java applets were opt-in.

It was very usable. To many, it was more usable than it is today.
