Why have you forced VoIP on us, with Firefox Hello! Now I'm prohibited from using this browser in the workplace for 'security reasons'. Dumb..

Updated Firefox today, as per the request. We're supposed to keep it up to date for security reasons. Latest update unfortunately forces undesirable feature, Firefox Hello. Which my manager reports is not exactly 'part of a standard web browser'.

We've taken steps to disable it, for now. But this is an unwelcome security hole, in what used to be a browser. Please don't return to the days of Netscape, where everything is bundled in, or you'll lose me, at my workplace, and at home also. Stick to being a good browser.

With an internet connection there are many oportunities for an employee to engage in none work activities with a browser, or otherwise.

On this forum we are only fellow Firefox users. We almost never see developers post on the forum. I suggest you look towards another Mozilla forum or mailing list to ask this question as we are unable to discuss Firefox development policies and decisions here.

If you do find somewhere where it is on topic, start a discussion please post a link in this thread.

Hello (WebRTC) is something that has been added to Chrome, Opera and will be added to I.E. in the near future. So it is not just Firefox.
