Firefox's upcoming "cookie-less" tracking comes under fire by Austrian privacy watchdog
"It's a shame that an organization like Mozilla believes that users are too dumb to say yes or no"

Mozilla recently introduced a controversial technology designed to help advertisers while preserving users' privacy. However, a European privacy watchdog says that while it's "less invasive" than tracking cookies, it is still tracking without consent. It has asked regulators to open a GDRP investigation.

  • Correções de segurança
 
Uso a versão ESR por causa do Win7 e acabou o suporte o mês passado. Vou virar p o Ubuntu certamente.
Um dos pontos mais fortes de Linux é haver tanta escolha quanto aquela que o utilizador quer e se Ubuntu é a tua preferida só posso apoiar em relação a Windows, mas se me permites uma sugestão: tenho andado entretido com Pop!_OS num computador que tinha aqui parado e estou bastante satisfeito com a experiência.

A base é Ubuntu mas com algumas modificações que, para mim, tornam a experiência melhor: Flatpak em vez de Snap, interface no geral é mais limpa e o tiling é muito bom.
 
Já usei Ubuntu e até gostei num PC antigo q tive.

No site da Mozilla está isto: A Mozilla está a fornecer atualizações críticas de segurança por meio do canal Firefox ESR até o final da versão 115 do ESR, setembro de 2024. Depois disso, nenhuma atualização de segurança será fornecida e é fortemente incentivado a migrar para uma versão compatível do Microsoft Windows.

Depois disso, nenhuma atualização de segurança será fornecida e é fortemente incentivado a migrar para uma versão compatível do Microsoft Windows.

A versão 115 ESR é a última mas vai receber actualizações de segurança até ao próximo ano. A página em inglês tem informação mais detalhada:

Firefox version 115 is the last supported Firefox version for users of Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. If you have been using Firefox on these versions of Windows, you will be moved to the Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) channel by an application update.

If you want to install Firefox on Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 and you visit the Firefox download page at https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/windows/ your Windows version will be detected and you will be prompted to download the latest Firefox 115 ESR version for your 32-bit or 64-bit Windows system.

Mozilla will provide security updates for Firefox 115 ESR until at least March 2025, when the position will be re-evaluated.

132.0Firefox Release​

October 29, 2024
Version 132.0, first offered to Release channel users on October 29, 2024

highlight.07fce9e0e5f3.svg

New​

  • Microsoft PlayReady encrypted media playback is now being rolled out to select sites on Windows. Through this support, we are gradually rolling out a 1080p baseline and 4K Ultra HD support with key streaming partners. An added benefit is that viewers get less battery drain and better performance when streaming their favorite movies and shows.
    progressive.c155af30a9cf.svg

    This feature is part of a progressive roll out.
    What is a progressive roll out?

  • Wide Color Gamut WebGL is now available for Windows and macOS users! With this support, Firefox is bringing a richer, more vivid range of colors to the videos, games, and images on your screen. This implementation currently supports wider color (P3) profiles in 8-bit.
  • WebRender hardware accelerated rendering is now enabled for most SVG filter primitives, improving performance for certain graphics-heavy content. Accelerated filters are feBlend, feColorMatrix, feComponentTransfer, feComposite, feDropShadow, feFlood, feGaussianBlur, feMerge and feOffset.
  • Added support for macOS’ new screen and window sharing selection features on macOS 15 and later. Support for macOS 14 will be added in a future release.
  • The macOS session resume feature has been enhanced. Firefox will now automatically relaunch if it was open before a system restart, like after an OS update.
  • Firefox now blocks third-party cookie access when Enhanced Tracking Protection's Strict mode is enabled.

Changed​

  • As a follow-up to our work to upgrade mixed content starting with Firefox 127, HTTP-favicons will now also be blocked if they can not be received over HTTPS instead.
  • The Copy Without Site Tracking option is now grayed out when no known tracking parameters are found within the link. Additionally, more tracking parameter support has been added for websites such as LinkedIn and Shopee. Please report tracking parameters that aren't removed by filing a bug in Bugzilla.

Developer​

  • Developer Information
  • Support for HTTP/2 Push has been removed due to compatibility issues with various sites. This feature is not currently supported by any other major browser.
  • Console logging in service workers is now functional again. The console.log API can be used within active service workers and the output inspected in the Console panel of the Developer Tools toolbox.
  • Support for debugging remote devices via USB has also been restored. Simply go to about:debugging, plug in your phone using a USB cable, and refresh the device list. The phone will now appear correctly in the list.

Web Platform​

  • Added support for a post-quantum key exchange mechanism for TLS 1.3 (mlkem768x25519) which secures communications against advanced / long-term threats.
  • Added support for Certificate Compression which reduces the size and increases the speed of a TLS handshake.
  • Text directionality computation has been updated to follow the latest model defined in the HTML specification, improving interoperability with other web browsers.
  • The requestVideoFrameCallback() method is now available on the HTMLVideoElement interface. This method enables developers to perform efficient operations on each video frame.
  • The getCapabilities method allows applications to gather the media capabilities supported for the live MediaStreamTrack.
  • The fetchpriority attribute enables web developers to optimize resource loading by specifying the relative priority of resources to be fetched by the browser. It accepts three values: auto (default priority), low (lower priority), high (higher priority). It can be specified on script, link, img elements, on the RequestInit parameter of the fetch() method and Link response headers. The HTML specification leaves the detailed interpretation of this attribute up to implementers. Firefox will typically use it to increase or decrease the urgency parameter of HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 requests.
  • The heuristic granting storage access for some window openings is now disabled.
