I generally trust Mozilla/Firefox and they just released a VPN. It is nice to be able to outsource my VPN research to them as well, since there aren’t many orgs I trust like that. It works well so far.

Im starting to trust Mozilla less since they discovered the camera in Firefox keeps recording even when you lock your phone and that they wont fix it until October....

As it should?

You're on a call. You lock the phone. You expect the call to continue right?

This bug is in their new browser. Its in a very early stage. So these bugs are expected

No, I dont expect the camera to stay ON (even for a video call) if I lock the phone.

Do you expect the call to continue, or to drop, when you lock the phone mid-call?

They should definitely have to ask the permission to be able to run the microphone or camera in the background, specially in Firefox (as opposed to native apps).

They already asked permission, and you're still on the call.

Firefox is using Mullvad for their VPN product.
