The Waterfox source code is a specialised modification of the Mozilla
|
|
platform, designed for privacy and user choice in mind. You should be
|
|
able to install it and compile Waterfox without any issues. Other
|
|
modifications and patches that are more upstream have been implemented
|
|
as well to fix any compatibility/security issues that Mozilla may lag
|
|
behind in implementing (usually due to not being high priority). High
|
|
request features removed by Mozilla but wanted by users are retained
|
|
(if they aren't removed due to security).
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
o Disabled Encrypted Media Extensions (EME)
