If so, it would need to be disabled somehow. The GNU FSDG specifically prohibits browsers that support EME. > Issue 1 I addressed so far: The default homepage (after first > start and in general default) called a website which is questionable > in my opion: https://palemoon.start.me > > I have patched the default home page to be gnu.org and gnu.org/s/guix > > > Next, can I keep the default bookmarks? They are: > - https://www.palemoon.org > - http://forum.palemoon.org/index.php > - https://www.palemoon.org/faq.shtml > - https://www.palemoon.org/releasenotes.shtml I suspect that the default home page and bookmarks will need to be changed. Otherwise, we would be steering users towards obtaining the Pale Moon browser, whose binary distribution is restricted by a nonfree license. See > Finally, about:addons let's you install Addons from 2 repositories: > Pale Moon Add-ons Site and Mozilla Add-ons Site. > "Search all add-ons" queries the 2 repositories and lets you install > add-ons from the repositories. We definitely need to avoid steering users toward the Mozilla Add-ons Site, or any other add-on site that is not committed to including only free software. We could instead steer users toward the list of free add-ons that's used by GNU IceCat. Thanks for working on it. Mark
