    Eh, anyone who knows what “Install an add-on from a repo” means also knows how to install firefox despite it being “censored”.

      Perhaps, but perhaps the police would monitor attempts to download Firefox and put those individuals on a watch list. They’re probably less likely to monitor various repos and their mirrors.

      I just don’t see much of a benefit for Firefox to push back too hard here. If they required Firefox to censor things that’s another story, but putting up a “this addon is not available in your region.”
