Comment (by genodeftest):

> Whether or not these plugins should be enabled or not is out of scope of
what you are asking the council.

Yes, sorry. I just wanted to show that they are not relevant any more
since being barely used and not enabled by default (nothing about
"should").

> Should Fedora packages and engineering default to a high level of
privacy?

Yes, of course. Privacy is a important requirement for an open society and
democracy.

> Who should define what "high level of privacy" means, and who should
enforce it?

I don't know.

But isn't this about the firefox package? Or should it be more general?
