* Changed: Firefox will not prompt for access to your
microphone or camera if you’ve already granted access to the
same device on the same site in the same tab within the past
50 seconds. This new grace period reduces the number of times
you’re prompted to grant device access
* Changed: The ‘Take a Screenshot’ feature was removed from the

right-click to open the context menu. You can also add a
screenshots shortcut directly to your toolbar via the
Customize menu. Open the Firefox menu and select Customize…
* Changed: FTP support has been disabled, and its full removal

risk reduces the likelihood of an attack while also removing
