Firefox is a browser that is very popular among users around the world. For domestic users, everyone knows that there are Chinese international and domestic versions. The latter is a domestic special offer, with some additional advertisements. However, the Chinese international version is now also rogue, and it was discovered that it would tamper with the homepage and add some advertisements.
According to the test of v2ex users, the new tab page of the Firefox Chinese international development version will be reset to the Firefox Chinese version start page URL navigation from time to time. This page is said to be navigation, but it is actually an advertisement. The URL navigation is only incidental.
Not only is the new tab page easy to get caught, but the default homepage may also be tampered with. The advertisements added at this time are often related to Double 11, after all, double 11 advertising traffic is more valuable. In theory, the international version and the domestic special version of Firefox are not a team, but now the international version may be tampered with. This matter will have to wait for Firefox to come out and explain.

What is more gratifying is that Firefox is still a bit of ethics. According to the feedback from users, not everyone has been recruited. The English version + Chinese language version is fine. The Chinese version is the main cause, and it is not locked. You can change it back. It seems The tampering didn’t appear this year either, there is only one wave every year during the 11.11 period.
