Who benefits from this? Even though Let’s Encrypt stresses that most site operators will do fine sticking with ordinary domain certificates, there are still scenarios where a numeric identifier is the only practical choice:

Infrastructure services such as DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) – where clients may pin a literal IP address for performance or censorship-evasion reasons.
IoT and home-lab devices – think network-attached storage boxes, for example, living behind static WAN addresses.
Ephemeral cloud workloads – short-lived back-end servers that spin up with public IPs faster than DNS records can propagate.

It's an open source product, in case you have concern about possibility of malicious code embedded within it.

At least there is no such indication so far from Mozilla :(

I just checked the site today and found it to be still functional.

Mozilla forgot to pull the plug? /s

In India, the share of Linux desktop became double just within one year (from 8% to 16%). I only hope this data is right.

UX is a very subjective matter.

Bad news is that it is not clear at this point whether Mozilla is going to go forward with the implementation. A post on Reddit by one of the project members suggests that the build is a "rough proof-of-concept". Some features tested in the build "did not survive". It is unclear which did not, as they are not mentioned. Mozilla is, however, implementing those that survived the cut into Firefox. Again, the poster does not mention which those are. It is also not verified that the poster is actually a member of the project team, so take this with a grain of salt as well.

  • Careful choice of program to infect the whole Linux ecosystem
  • Time it took to gain trust
  • Level of sophistication in introducing backdoor in open source product

All of these are signs of persistent threat actors aka State sponsor hacker. Though the real motive we would never know as it's now a failed project.

There is a work-in-progress version of Firefox for iOS with Gecko engine.

But, there is also a challenge that Mozilla is facing as Apple is still trying to make life of developers of other browsers as difficult as possible.

So, not sure how the whole thing will turn out.

This is how I explained it to one of my friends who is/was definitely a member of “I’ve got nothing to hide” club -

  • Suppose you are in a pay-to-use toilet minding your own Business.
  • That pay-to-use toilet is managed by a public/private entity called ToiletBook.
  • Suddenly you notice a (hidden) camera in the room.
  • When confronted, the owner confirms the only reason they took your picture to suggest you the perfect underwear based on your size. And, there is a legal guarantee that picture/data will never be used for any other purpose and only be processed by machine.
  • Will you still go to such toilet?

BTW, that friend stopped talking to me afterward; not sure why 🤔 (Edit: I should stop giving shitty examples to anyone, as it seems ) 🤐
