This should be ON by default, in my opinion. Also, I believe Mozilla has a massive opportunity here to demarcate themselves as the more security-conscious browser vendor. "This phishing trick works on all major browsers except Firefox" would be great publicity material.
Since Google makes money off of you using Maps, and makes third-party apps pay a fee for using their API, I don’t think they have an incentive to let you download navigation data to use it into another company’s software
That’s really impressive. It’s also good for preservation since AFAIK Blizzard killed the possibility to play the original game legally when Reforged came out

I don’t understand why we keep telling new users that it is useless to use an antivirus on Linux. For people with computer knowledge, sure. However more widespread Linux adoption will mean more casual users will start using it. Most of them don’t have the “common sense” that is often mentioned ; these users will eventually fall for scams that tell them to run programs attached in emails or random bash scripts from the internet. The possibility is small, but it’s not zero, so why not protect against it?
