The French government is considering a law that would require web browsers – like Mozilla's Firefox – to block websites chosen by the government.

And if you bothered to invest a fifth of a third of a quarter of the energy you're putting into being defensive into helping solve the problem, we wouldn't be here.

I took your comment as against the argv_minus_one guys, so in favour of my comment he was bashing.

Anyways I do invest time in this stuff, I built the Tenfingers sharing protocol.

And I took your comment as immature negativity only to find out it's jealous whining at best and concern trolling and forum sliding at worst.

You're not going to win the argument. All you're going to do is make things worse. You're not going to stop us from supporting Firefox in their time of need, or France's, or the Internet. It's just not gonna happen.

So go find something better to do with your free time and let the adults talk.
